2009 Montenegrin parliamentary election
[1] The parliamentary elections were the eighth since the reintroduction of multi-party system in 1990, and the second since regaining full independence in 2006.President Filip Vujanović called the parliamentary elections on 27 January 2009, after the parliament decided the previous day to shorten its term, although this decision was controversial.The pre-electoral process had been marked by several major incidents, such as the revocation of citizenship of Predrag Popović, president of the People's Party,[4] the violation of the human right to work during the formation of the coalition treaty of Prime Minister Milo Đukanović's ruling coalition, which would make party affiliation a criterion for employment, and repeated protests by discontented workers pushed into poverty.Seats were distributed by the D'Hondt method, which slightly favors leading lists above the smaller ones.The Coalition for a European Montenegro won an absolute majority of seats, with approximately 66 percent voter turnout, securing Milo Đukanović (DPS) new term as prime minister.
