Sandžak Democratic Party
Санџачка демократска партија Sandžačka demokratska partija
A political party in Serbia that primarily draws its support from Bosniaks in the Sandžak region. It was formed in 1996 after splitting from the Party of Democratic Action of Sandžak.
In the 2007 Serbian parliamentary elections, the Sandžak Democratic Party won three seats while running on a joint list with the Democratic Party.
In the 2008 elections, the Sandžak Democratic Party ran on a joint list with the Democratic Party, G17 Plus, the League of Social Democrats of Vojvodina, and the Serbian Renewal Movement, winning four seats.
In the 2009 local elections in Zemun and Voždovac, the Sandžak Democratic Party ran for the first time as the leader of the "List for Tolerance" coalition of minority parties, winning three councilor seats across the two municipalities.
In 2009, SDP President Rasim Ljajić founded a new party named the Social Democratic Party of Serbia. However, the SDP did not cease to exist; instead, it operated as a branch of the Social Democratic Party of Serbia.
President: Rasim Ljajić (first), Samir Lekić (since 13 April 2024)
