Talk:Croatian Peasant Party

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page could use some more contemporary information about the HSS, particularly during the crucial 1990-2000 period. If I recall, the only city not ruled by the CDU was Osijek — it remained a Peasant Party stronghold under the mayoralship of Kramaric. I believe redistricting engineered by the CDU resulted in the CPP losing control over Osijek. Maybe I'm completely wrong here. Anyone? -- User:Alcarillo 20:00 13 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Kramarić was actually from the Liberal Party, but he was the mayor of Osijek; the Osijek-Baranja županija has been consistently ruled by the HDZ, IIRC. However, the HSS did get župans in several counties in the 2001 local election: Vukovar-Srijem, Dubrovnik-Neretva and Koprivnica-Krizevci I think. Much more can be written, yeah... --Shallot 19:11, 13 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Unless the HSS really wasn't as much of a blip on the radar in the 1990s. I haven't followed the politics since 1998 or so, but I'm not surprised they had a strong showing in 2001 locally in formerly contested areas. User:Alcarillo sometime 13 Apr 04 (UTC)
