The second round of the presidential election in Macedonia was held on 5 April. The Macedonia Information Service has the following figures:

Turnout 42.69%

This figure is very important because if fewer than 40% had voted, then the election would have been invalid.

In terms of the votes cast the following figures are provided:

Gjorge Ivanov (VMRO-DPMNE), 451,365 votes, 63.1%
Ljubomir Frckovski (SDSM), 263,457 votes, 36.9%

The VMRO-DPMNE win ends the current period of cohabitation.
