Bosnia and Herzegovina votes · Part 04 of 07

Ten cantons

  • Presidency
  • State House
  • Entity
  • Canton (this part)

The Federation is ten cantons, and each elects its own assembly of 21 to 35 seats, with its own government, schools and police. RS voters have no cantonal ballot.

Preliminary 202695.5% of polling stations counted, as of October 05, 2026, 07:00 am. Votes by post and absentee ballots are not in yet, and seats are allocated only once the count is certified, so seat charts still compare 2018 and 2022.

The answer

On the preliminary 2026 count, SDA leads six cantons, and HDZ BiH four. The leading list changed in one: Canton 10 (HNP → HDZ BiH).

2022 → 2026

How far ahead each canton’s first list is

One row per canton on a shared scale. The grey line runs to the leading list’s share in 2022; the tick is the leading list’s share in 2026, in its party’s colour. A tick short of its line is a leader that lost ground, or a new leader on a smaller share.
