According to the number of mandates it had in the Parliament, it appears that this year the LDK will have the smallest number of seats in Parliament, writes Periscope.
In 2001-2004, The LDK had 47 seats in Parliament and the same seats during 2004-2007.
By 2007-2010, The LDK had had only 25 seats in the Assembly of the Republic of Kosovo, which was almost half a vote for the Democratic League.
During 2010-2014, The LDK had received two more deputies than in the last elections, taking 27 seats in the Assembly.
The growth trend had continued during 2014-2017, where the LDK had managed to secure 30 deputies in the Kosovo Assembly.
And during 2017-2019, The LDK had again suffered a decline in votes, securing only 25 deputies, while in the 2019 elections it had received three more or 28 deputies total.
In the last elections held yesterday in Kosovo, The LDK has so far secured only 13.08% of the vote (without diaspora votes) and can get 13-16 seats in the Kosovo Assembly.
The final result is not expected to change much with the diaspora votes, while due to the disappointing outcome, today the leader of the Democratic League, Isa Mustafa, has resigned from the post of chairman, to release the country a new chairman expected to be voted in the following days. /Periscopi
