Vučić acknowledged that his political force had failed to secure sufficient voter support to retain its parliamentary majority.
At the same time, preliminary estimates indicate significant success for the "Student List," which may have the opportunity to form a new majority in the National Assembly of Serbia.
What the election results mean
To independently control the 250-seat parliament, a political force must win at least 126 seats.
We do not yet have the final results, but… it is obvious that we lost these elections. The "Student List" won: they will get between 135 and 140 seats, while we will have 105. No one else made it into parliament

If the Serbian Progressive Party wins 105 seats, it will be 21 votes short of a parliamentary majority.
The final allocation of parliamentary seats must be confirmed by Serbia’s electoral commission.
