Bosnia and Herzegovina votes · Part 03 of 07

Two entities, two parliaments

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

Each entity elects its own parliament on its own ballot: the Federation’s House of Representatives, 98 seats, and the National Assembly of the Republika Srpska, 83.

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.

In the Federation House, SDA leads the preliminary count with 30.6% (24.4% in 2022); SDA gained the most share (+6.2 pts) and DF lost the most (−5.0 pts). In the RS Assembly, SNSD leads the preliminary count with 39.0% (34.6% in 2022); PSS gained the most share (+14.1 pts) and PDP lost the most (−10.3 pts).
