This parliamentary election was the 8th since the 1990 first multi-party election and the first since Croatia joined the European Union in 2013.The ruling center-left Croatia is Growing coalition, led by Prime Minister Zoran Milanović, was challenged by the center-right Patriotic Coalition led by the Croatian Democratic Union and headed by its party chairman Tomislav Karamarko, and also faced several new political coalitions.The elections produced a hung parliament, with the ruling Croatia is Growing coalition winning 56 seats in the 10 electoral constituencies within Croatia and 3 of the 8 representatives of national minorities (Ermina Lekaj-Prljaskaj and Veljko Kajtazi are members of HNS and Sándor Juhász is a member of SDP). The opposition Patriotic Coalition won 56 seats within Croatia and all three seats allocated to Croatian citizens living abroad, winning 59 seats, technically tying with the ruling coalition. The IDS-PGS-RI coalition was expected to side with Croatia is Growing, as well as the remaining 5 minority representatives, giving Prime Minister Zoran Milanović's coalition 67 seats to 59 for Tomislav Karamarko's opposition coalition. This left Zoran Milanović 9 seats short of a majority, while Tomislav Karamarko needed 17 seats. The third-placed MOST led by Metković mayor Božo Petrov, which won 19 seats, was expected to be the deciding factor in the formation of the next government of Croatia. After the election Drago Prgomet of MOST stated that neither Zoran Milanović nor Tomislav Karamarko would be their choice for Prime Minister and that MOST will decide on who will head the 13th government of Croatia. Some within MOST had stated they prefer the formation of a national unity government made up of HDZ, SDP and MOST, though this was considered extremely unlikely. On 11 November Patriotic coalition leader Tomislav Karamarko openly rejected the prospect of an HDZ-SDP-MOST government. This was followed by more than 45 days of negotiations between all three coalitions, resulting in numerous twists and turns mainly due to MOST putting frequently changing terms before the two larger, ideologically-based coalitions. On 22 December it was stated that Croatia is Growing would form a government with MOST, however, on 23 December, after yet another twist MOST decided to give its support to a government with the HDZ. The coalition was further supported by Milan Bandić 365 and two independent minority representatives, giving them a slim majority of 78 seats in Parliament, two more than the required 76 seats. They nominated a Croatian-Canadian businessman named Tihomir Orešković, who is generally unknown to the public and having spent most of his life in Canada, to be the next Prime Minister. He finally took office on 22 January 2016 as the 11th Prime Minister, after 76 days of negotiations."@en }
