If there are no compromises and concessions from political parties, early elections may again be an option...
The vote counting process in Kosovo is almost complete, but the results of these elections do not give hope for a solution to the political impasse that has plunged the country into a vicious circle.
After all votes were counted, Albin Kurti's Vetëvendosje Movement (LDK) received 43.06 percent or 295,891 votes, coming out on top, but failing to secure the majority needed to form a single government. Kurti's party has suffered a decline since the last elections held in December, where it received 51 percent of the vote, securing the mandates needed to govern alone.

The Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK) led by Bedri Hamza came in second with 21.12 percent or 145,136 votes. The PDK has seen a slight increase in these elections from the December elections where it received 20.98 percent of the votes.
The third-placed party was the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK) led by Lumir Abdixhiku, receiving 17.68 percent or 121,529 votes. The LDK is the one that has improved the most since the December elections, when it came in with 13.57 percent.
Next in line was the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo (AAK), led by Ardian Gjini, which received 7.21 percent or 49,563 votes. AAK has also seen an increase since the last elections, when it received only 5.66 percent.
With this result, the mandates are divided between LVV with 48 mandates, PDK- 24 mandates, LDK- 20 mandates, AAK- 8 mandates. With this distribution of mandates, we return to the result of the February 9, 2025 elections, which created the political deadlock that led to the December 2025 elections.
This means that today's elections did not bring a solution to the situation created in Kosovo. This kind of situation is no longer supported by the people, who today significantly showed indifference towards the election process, which had a very low turnout with only 688,592 citizens exercising their right to vote out of almost 2 million eligible voters.
How the political game will develop in Kosovo remains to be seen, but if there are no compromises and concessions from political parties, early elections may again be an option./Pamphlet
