Now imagine 2 million Albanians

About one million are not citizens, and of the other million only about 2/3 are old enough to vote, so 650,000 votes max.

Out of 6.5 million eligible voters in Serbia, that's not such as terribly strong block vote.

What is noteworthy is that "domestic foreigners" do vote as a block, which means that the issues are not the deciding factor, but rather who is perceived as "less of a Serb." Obviously, economics do not play a significant factor either -- the Magyars live relatively well compared to the rashka's "Bosniaks," so they come fromt wo different economic ends of a spectrum, yet they vote along the same lines.

BTW, Labus is a Jew, or at least his family used to be. I am curious when will the model democracies of the West, especially the US, nominate a Jew for their head of state? So much for Serb "intolerance."

I thought Heyderich "evacuated" all the Jews from that area? You mean to say that he missed a few?

The late nineteenth century. And he wasn't just nominated, he went all the way to the top. Well, technically Queen Victoria outranked Disraeli, but the PM actually runs things.
