Bosnia sets date for presidential election

Bosnia will hold presidential and parliamentary elections on October 7, even though rival ethnic leaders have yet to agree on voting rules for the upper house of the Bosniak-Croat Federation’s parliament. Nearly 3.4-million voters will choose Croat, Serb and Bosniak members of the tripartite presidency and legislators for the lower house, plus regional leaders and assemblies, the Central Election Commission said on Tuesday. /
