Jakup Krasniqi's major failure is how many votes his party wins in Drenas

After some phone wiretapping where Thaci offended Limaj and Krasniqi, the latter decided to establish civic initiatives in Malisheva and Drenas. In Malisheva, The PDK lost power, even emerged after the LDK until the Initiative began local governance where it continues. In Drenas, there was a 60% PDK victory, not as in the past that PDK won Drenasi by 80-85%

The Social Democrat Initiative continued its journey in the 2014 local elections, where it managed to win 5% by being the opposition along with AAK and Vetevendosje, among other things, opposed the association of Serb majority municipalities, demarcation with Montenegro and the election of Hashim Thaci president of Kosovo. In 2017 The initiative became part of the government with the PAN coalition ] chairman of the National Initiative Council Jakup Krasniqi often issued opposition and critical statements to power.

But, Jakup Krasniqi has failed in his municipality, Drenas. In 2016, where the extraordinary elections were held in Drenas, the Social Democrat Initiative through candidate Isa Xhemajli managed to send PDK for the first time to the runoff, then won the elections, Ramiz Ladrovci of PDK.

This year, the Initiative managed to win only 7.77% in Drenas or 1733 votes. Something that has resulted from the failure to pass the election threshold from the Initiative when 100% of the vote has been counted, but it is expected to count conditional votes, disabled persons and diaspora.

Jakup Krasniqi is from the Drinas municipality and has completely failed to drastically lower the Social Democrat Initiative's electorate by 7.7% in the back. PDK and Vetevendosje Movement.
