An independent political movement called With Knowledge and Heart for a Successful Municipality won a plurality victory in Ada in the 2004 Serbian local elections, taking eleven out of twenty-nine seats in the local assembly. The movement's leader Ferenc Ürményi became mayor and formed a coalition government with other independent groups and with G17 Plus.[4] Micsíz was elected to the local assembly as one of the movement's candidates.[5] He was also elected to the provincial assembly under the movement's banner in the concurrent 2004 Vojvodina provincial election.
Micsíz chaired Ada's sports and technical committee in the 2004–08 term and was appointed to its security council in 2007.[6] [7] While he was not endorsed by G17 Plus in the 2004 provincial election, he later joined the party's assembly group and became its deputy leader.[8] He served on the Vojvodina assembly's economy committee and the committee for European integration and international regional cooperation.[9] [10]
Micsíz was defeated in his bid for re-election in the 2008 provincial election, finishing third in Ada as a G17 Plus candidate. He also appeared in the second position on a combined list of G17 Plus and Ürményi's movement in the 2008 local elections; the list fell to six seats, and he did not take a mandate afterward in the local assembly.[11] [12] [13] [14]
