Darko Bađok (Serbian Cyrillic: Дарко Бађок; born 1972) is a politician in Serbia. He has served in the Assembly of Vojvodina since 2013 as a member of the Serbian Progressive Party.
Private career
editBađok was born in 1972 and holds a master's degree in engineering management. He lives in Zrenjanin.[1]
In November 2012, an employee at a café owned by Bađok charged that he had physically attacked her during an argument over her salary. Bađok denied the accusation, contending that the employee in question had verbally and physically attacked him.[2] In January 2014, a misdemeanour court in Zrenjanin found him guilty of having attacked the employee, causing minor physical injuries, and issued a fine of seven thousand dinars. Bađok announced that he would appeal the decision and said that he believed the accusation against him was politically motivated.[3] In July 2014, he stated in an interview that the verdict had been overturned on appeal and a new trial ordered.[4]
Politician
editBađok was first elected to the Vojvodina provincial assembly in a by-election for Zrenjanin's third constituency seat in 2013. The Democratic Party and its allies formed the government of Vojvodina in this period, and Bađok served in opposition.
Vojvodina switched to a system of full proportional representation prior to the 2016 provincial election; Bađok received the thirty-fifth position on the Progressive Party's electoral list and was re-elected when the list won a majority victory with sixty-three out of 120 mandates.[5] He was subsequently given the sixty-third position on the party's Aleksandar Vučić — For Our Children list in the 2020 provincial election and was elected to a third term when the list won an increased majority with seventy-six mandates.[6] He is now a member of the assembly committee on education and science and the committee on urban and spatial planning and environmental protection.[7]
