Turnout: 413,894 voters / 540,026 registered electors. Shares are recalculated from the stated valid-vote denominator, not all registered voters or all ballots cast.
Coalitions remain single result rows; coalition votes are not distributed among component parties. All lists in the checked national table, including zero-seat lists, are included. Blank government information and unassessed ideology do not imply a conclusion about either.
Previous seats are shown only for the same standalone party in the immediately preceding election or an unchanged coalition membership. A missing comparison is null, not zero. Chamber size and electoral boundaries changed across some elections.
Final certification: 14 September 2020. DPS received 143,515 votes, not the preliminary 143,548 often repeated elsewhere. The commission reports 4,500 invalid ballots and one used ballot carried away in Kolašin (not counted valid or invalid); a separate ballot carried away in Herceg Novi explains the received/used/unused difference.
