That's because the main reason for independence was not ethnic/national differences. The only area actually claiming to any great extent of total ethnic/national difference is Cetinje (the old royal capital) and that is more of Cetinje's desire to relive it's past glory and not come to reality that is nothing but a small insignificant town.
One of the reasons pro-independence won was because of instability in Serbia, the unresolved Kosovo status, comments made by the Soros funded G-17+ for the disintegration of Montenegro. However the main reason is economic. I have relatives who voted pro-independence because they knew that property prices and tourism would increase if Montenegro was independent instead of being in that disfunctional union with Serbia.
Most pro-independence forces are opportunists only looking after their own interests and power. Just look at them -- Jevrem Brkovic, Milo Djukanovic and Novak kilibarda. All of them were turbo-serbs and now they are seperatists.
