The snap parliamentary election was called after Prime Minister Albin Kurti's party failed to form a government following the February elections.
Kurti's party is once again the favorite, but it is uncertain whether it will gain a majority.
The stalemate is the first of its kind since Kosovo declared independence from Serbia in 2008. As a result, no budget has been approved for next year, raising concerns about the country's already strained economy.
A new president is also to be elected in March. If the presidential election fails, another new election is expected.
Sweden is one of just over a hundred countries that recognize Kosovo as independent, which Serbia still does not recognize.
