Radovan Radović (Serbian Cyrillic: Радован Радовић; born 18 September 1951), commonly known as Raka, is a retired politician in Serbia.

He returned to the Trstenik area after leaving university and worked for a time as director of waterworks maintenance at Prva Petoletka.

[8] The Socialists won a minority victory in 1992 and initially governed in an informal alliance with the far-right Serbian Radical Party (Srpska radikalna stranka, SRS).

[9][10] The Socialists increased their seat total in this election and afterward formed a new administration with New Democracy (Nova Demokratija, ND).

[11][12] Radović was appointed as acting director of Radio Television of Serbia's newly created Trstenik studio in 1995.

[13] He was removed after the opposition's victory in the municipality in the 1996 Serbian local elections; after leaving office, he re-entered the studios surreptitiously and left with the station van, a high-range transmitter, and some equipment.

")[15] He was excluded from the SPS's electoral list in the 1997 parliamentary election, apparently because he opposed the party's alliance with the Yugoslav Left (Jugoslovenska Levica, JUL) led by Milošević's wife Mirjana Marković.

A new Serbian parliamentary election was held later in the year; prior to the vote, Serbia's electoral system was reformed such that the entire country became a single electoral division and all mandates were awarded to candidates on successful lists at the discretion of the sponsoring parties or coalitions, irrespective of numerical order.

Radović joined the newly formed Democratic Socialist Party (Demokratska Socijalistička Partija, DSP) and appeared in the eighth position on its list.

[24] Our Home Serbia contested the 2003 parliamentary election as part of the For National Unity alliance, and Radović appeared in the fifth position on its list.

[29] Serbia's electoral laws were again reformed in 2011, such that mandates were awarded to candidates on successful lists in numerical order.

Radović contested the 2012 local elections at the head of his own Movement for the Municipality of Trstenik list, which narrowly missed crossing the electoral threshold.
