Katarina Peović and Karolina Vidović Kristo, both vocal critics of the ruling party, also failed to secure a new term in office.

The Reformists, who had one mandate in the last convocation, will not have a representative in the Parliament this time around either. Bojan Glavašević, a former independent representative who ran on the Rijeka pravde list and won 6.5 percent of preferential votes, also lost his seat.
