The Serbian presidential election, held on December 8, 2002, was a repeat of the first presidential election of that year, which was invalidated because the turnout during that round was less than 50% of all eligible voters. The legal requirement of a turnout of at least 50% of registered voters was dropped for the second round of this election, also as a result of the invalidation.


This ballot, however, was also declared invalid because the turnout of the first round failed to reach the 50% turnout requirement. By the time the 2004 Serbian presidential election was held, this requirement was removed altogether.
