Macedonia Holds Early Elections

Eleven political parties and blocs are competing in Macedonia's long-delayed parliamentary elections on December 11. Coming after a draining two-year political crisis, the polls are shaping up to be among the most important in the 25 years of Macedonia's independence. The country had previously been part of the former Yugoslavia. Voters in the capital, Skopje, spoke to RFE/RL about their impressions of election day. (RFE/RL's Balkan Service)
