Politician
Vujadinović received the forty-first position on the DS's
The DS–DSS alliance fell apart in early 2008, and a new election was called. Vujadinović received the twenty-sixth position on the DS's For a European Serbia list and was given a mandate for a second term when the list won 102 seats.[8] The overall election results were initially inconclusive; following extended negotiations, For a European Serbia formed a new coalition government with the Socialist Party of Serbia, and Vujadinović again served as a government supporter.
Vujadinović resigned his parliamentary mandate on 3 December 2009, having been selected as mayor of Kosjerić earlier in the year.[9][10] He held the mayoral position until 2012, when a new alignment of parties in the municipal assembly brought about his removal from office.[11][12] In March 2011, he signed a contract with Belgrade's Tek Energy to develop hydropower plants in the municipality.[13]
Serbia's electoral system was reformed in 2011, such that parliamentary mandates were awarded in numerical order to candidates on successful lists. Vujadinović received the 131st position on the DS's Choice for a Better Life list in the 2012 parliamentary election and, as the list won only sixty-seven mandates, was not returned to parliament.[14]
The DS experienced a serious split in early 2014, with former leader Boris Tadić setting up a new breakaway group that was originally called the New Democratic Party. This party contested the 2014 Serbian parliamentary election in a fusion with the Greens of Serbia and in alliance with other parties. Vujadinović sided with Tadić in the split and received the thirty-eighth position on the coalition list; he missed re-election when the list won eighteen seats.[15] The New Democratic Party re-constituted itself as the Social Democratic Party later in the year.
The SDS participated in the 2016 parliamentary election in an alliance with the Liberal Democratic Party and the League of Social Democrats of Vojvodina. Vujadinović again received the thirty-eighth position on their combined list and was not elected when the list won thirteen mandates.[16]
Death
Vujadinović died in Kragujevac on 23 December 2021, at the age of sixty-eight, following a short illness.[17]
