The movement currently has 5 MPs in National Assembly and 3 in Vojvodina Assembly.[3][4][5] They also have representatives in Medijana, Valjevo, Rakovica, Zvedara and Stari grad municipalities.[6] On 24 January one MP joined the Party of Modern Serbia, making the total number of seats in the Assembly 6.[citation needed]
