Early elections in Serbia. Crowds of voters, some came with their own pens

Voters in Serbia are bringing their own pens to prevent potential fraud during elections. Many express distrust in the electoral process, especially if the current government wins. Police are securing polling places amid high turnout, with over 41% voting by early afternoon. These elections follow nearly two years of protests sparked by a tragic incident in 2024, leading to a student-led electoral list competing against the ruling party. Polls show a tight race, with students gaining unexpected support.
