Croatia's second city of Split announces snap local elections in June

On 26 June, eligible voters will go to the polls to elect the mayor, the two deputy mayors and a new 31-seat city council.

The snap election will be organized after Split Mayor Ivica Puljak (the Centre party) and his two deputies Bojan Ivosevic and Antonio Kuzmanic - stepped down recently after an indictment was upheld against Ivosevic for threatening a reporter.
