The PD again wins over 70 percent and takes 21 municipalities The PD wins in 21 municipalities in the Shkodra bloc, but with Shkodra it loses an organization that had so far been unbeaten. The victory of the Balli i Kombit organization in Shkodra takes on the dimensions of a "political earthquake" within the Democrats, while the victory of communist Haxhi Shkreli in Gjirokastër widens the gap between them even more. A "bitter victory" for the Democrats, as one of the leaders called it at the end of the counting, because it was quickly seen that they were heading toward the decapitation of the municipality of Iballë for PDK (today PSD) and the Socialists. The first municipality of the Republicans broke this stalemate, but such 23 percent is considered a total failure for the Democrats. In any case, Berisha's boys managed to achieve a territorial completion for Balli, 5 municipalities, where the winners in June had been the anti-communists. They control 4 municipalities in the Puka constituency and the highest percentage in Malësia e Madhe. In Shkodra they manage to have twice as many voters as in June. Undoubtedly, the winner of this runoff was more than yesterday, and yesterday's result is in favor of Balli and not the PSD. On pages 2-3
