The race is on, the presidential candidates have been announced - all seven of them - and just like the US, we are set for a replay of the previous presidential elections. SDSM is nominating the incumbent Stevo Pendarovski, and VMRO-DPMNE are again running with Gordana Siljanovska. But this time the Albanian vote is divided and won't stand behind Pendarovski (if they vote at all - there is talk of boycott), and SDSM's polls are flatlining. Siljanovska is not without her faults and SDSM did show some signs of life during the collection of signatures in support of Pendarovski, who is proving again that he is a dirty player in his opening attacks on the opponent.
