Election system

Croatia's county prefects, mayors and municipality heads are elected to four-year terms by a majority of votes cast within applicable local government units, with a runoff election if no candidate achieves a majority in the first round of voting. [4] Members of county, city and municipal councils are elected to four-year terms through proportional representation, with the entire local government unit as a single constituency. The number of council members is defined by the councils themselves, based on applicable legislation. Electoral committees are tasked with determining whether the national minorities are represented in the council (as required by the constitution), adding further members to the council (who belong to the appropriate minorities) by selecting them from unelected-candidate lists. [5] Election silence, as in all other elections in Croatia, is enforced on the day of the elections and the previous day, ending at 7:00 pm when the polling stations close and exit polls may be announced. [6]

Number of seats in each county, city or municipality is defined by the Law on Local and Regional Self-Government and depends on their population. [7]

Elections in major cities

Analysis

HDZ increased its number of county governors from 13 to 14 and its number of city mayors from 56 to 61. The party also increased its number of city and municipal mayors in Istria County and Primorje-Gorski Kotar County, traditional strongholds of IDS and SDP.

As expected, Tomislav Tomašević (Možemo) was re-elected as mayor of Zagreb, defeating the independent candidate Marija Selak-Raspudić.

In Split HDZ’s candidate Tomislav Šuta defeated the incumbent mayor Ivica Puljak, who subsequently announced that he was retiring from active politics.

Rijeka, Croatia's third most populous city, elected a nonpartisan mayor for the first time since Croatia gained independence in 1991. SDP's candidate was eliminated in the first round. Iva Rinčić defeated the incumbent mayor Marko Filipović.

In Osijek the incumbent mayor Ivan Radić (HDZ) was re-elected by a landslide, winning more than 70% of the votes.
