General elections were held in Bosnia and Herzegovina on 12 October 2014. They decided the makeup of Bosnia and Herzegovina's Presidency as well as national, entity, and cantonal governments. Voter turnout was 54.47%.[1]
The elections for the House of Representatives were divided into two; one for the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and one for Republika Srpska. In the presidential election, voters in the Federation re-elected Bosniak Bakir Izetbegović and elected Croat Dragan Čović, while voters in Republika Srpska elected Serb Mladen Ivanić.
The Party of Democratic Action (SDA) emerged as the largest party in the House of Representatives, winning 10 of the 42 seats and over 300,000 votes, their highest number of votes since 1998. The Alliance of Independent Social Democrats came in second with 6 seats, down two from the previous general election. The Serb Democratic Party (SDS) significantly improved its result, earning 12.97% of the popular vote, up from 8.40% in 2010, winning five seats. The newly-formed Democratic Front (DF), headed by Željko Komšić, also won five seats. The Union for a Better Future and the Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ BiH) each won 4 seats. The ruling Social Democratic Party recorded its worst ever result with 6.65% of the popular vote, a drastic decline from 17.33% in the 2010 general election, winning three seats, its lowest number since 1996. The Party for Bosnia and Herzegovina failed to meet the 3% constituency level vote electoral threshold, denying it seats in the House of Representatives for the first time in its history.
Following the election, the SDA and the SDS formed a coalition agreement with the DF, the HDZ BiH and the Party of Democratic Progress. In March 2015, Denis Zvizdić was appointed as the new Chairman of the Council of Ministers and the government was confirmed by the House of Representatives.
