Choice for a Better Life (Serbian: Избор за бољи живот, romanized: Izbor za bolji život) was a political coalition in Serbia, headed by Boris Tadić and his Democratic Party. They competed in the 2012 parliamentary election and won 22.07% of the popular vote. In the presidential election of the same year, Tadić won a plurality of votes in the first round, but narrowly lost to Tomislav Nikolić and the Let's Get Serbia Moving coalition in the second round.
