U drugoj polovini kampanje došlo je do napuštanja koalicije Gruevskog od strane dvije manje desničarske stranke -- VMRO-NP bivšeg premijera Ljupča Georgijevskog i Ujedinjeni za Makedoniju bivšeg ministra unutrašnjih poslova Ljubeta Boškovskog -- koje su saopćile da će ići na ostvarivanje dogovora s opozicijom.
The second half of the election campaign saw a number of defections to Gruevski's coalition, with two smaller right-wing parties -- the VMRO-NP of former Prime Minister Ljupco Georgievski and ex-interior minister Ljube Boskovski's United for Macedonia -- saying they would seek a deal with the opposition.
