The elections come just months after Montenegro's political establishment was rocked when long-time leader Milo Djukanovic suffered a crushing defeat in a presidential run-off in April to upstart Jakov Milatovic of the Europe Now Party. Europe Now appeared to be building on that success after it looked like they scored 26 percent of the vote on Sunday, according to the Centre for Democratic Transition polling group. The party however will likely face an uphill fight to build a coalition -- which is by no means guaranteed -- to be able to form a government. "We are very pleased with the results," said Europe Now leader Milojko Spajc on Sunday evening. "We will sit with everybody who shares our values... we will form a pro-European government." The pollster showed Djukanovic's Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS) coming in second after capturing 23 percent of the ballots cast. (ANSA-AFP).
