Elections in Kosovo gives information on election and election results in Kosovo.
Kosovo has held four elections since the Kosovo War -- municipal elections in 2000 and 2003, and Kosovo-wide elections in 2001 and 2004. These elections were conducted under international supervision. The OSCE and other observing groups concluded that these elections were generally fair and free.
Per Kosovo's Constitutional Framework, which established Kosovo's Provisional Institutions of Self-Government (PISG), elections are to be held every three years for the Kosovo Assembly. The Assembly then in turn elects a president and prime minister. The Assembly (Kuvendi/Skupština) has 120 members elected for a three year term, 100 members elected by proportional representation, and 20 members representing national minorities (10 Serbian, 4 Roma, Ashkali and Egyptian, 3 Bosniak, 2 Turkish and 1 Gorani). Kosovo has a multi-party system, with numerous parties in which no one party often has a chance of gaining power alone, and parties must work with each other to form coalition governments.
