Is Serbia with or without a new president? That's the question on many people's lips now as they analyse the conflicting figures produced by the parties of the two candidates contesting. The ruling Socialists say their man, Milan Milutinovic, has won and that over half of the electorate voted.

Their opponents, the Radicals, whose candidate is Vojislav Seselj, accused them of lying and say that the required 50% turnout wasn't met. As confusion reigns, the mud-slinging continues.

The Radicals are saying that this not the first time the Socialists have lied. They say they have data to prove that their opponents rigged the voting and stuffed the ballot boxes.

According to them, the Socialists forged the results in the Serbian province of Kosovo. Traditionally its ethnic Albanian population boycott elections, therefore increasing the possibilities that their votes could be abused.

But the Socialists are claiming a victory and dismissing accusations of electoral irregularities. It's unclear what's going to happen next in this unexpectedly eventful round of elections.

Official results will have to come from the Serbian electoral commission, which is generally viewed as a government body. They are not expected to produce their figures until later on Monday.
