490,000 ballots for PD
10 percent of Tirana’s population will vote twice or more
Politics must be moral
The closer the voting date gets, the more pessimistic voters on the opposition side are about the possibility that fair and uncontested elections will also be implemented in Albania. In yesterday’s press and in the independent party cafés, those who always want to put Benonike-tako first openly declared that they feel powerless before the behavior and lack of scruples of the state structures of the Socialist Party. The opposition presents with evidence a major objection. There have been hundreds of past cases that have been verified and that continue to trouble minds. It can be a serious insult, and it is. They are involved as if they have no hand in it and act against the “state”.
There are so many close and intervening infractions that hundreds of citizens in the city of Tirana have been registered with double addresses, and even the competent authority for this sham procedure has been identified. The scandal of the present time is that it must be reacted to. At the strongest level, the opposition has filed a broad and public complaint about this sham procedure. In the sanctity that is being claimed and touched by their opposite arbitrariness toward the border of the sphere of succession. Above it stands the file that has been prepared for the Socialist Party, where they also express hope for an explanation of this procedure to be resolved by the vote on the famous ballot.
Their declarations and the opposition’s reactions have begun to become frequent and large, and they must be stated clearly otherwise. Yesterday around 10:00, one could also vote in a school in the center of the capital, and with another certificate people vote there as well. The impartial government will change this decision. Others do not allow it, and the reasons are pushed aside by the decision. These are some of the clearest indications of the state’s responsibilities. More clearly, politics has a moral place for many people and for voting. And yet it will not pronounce on revocations, only these two details, one of the actions that has no connection with the proper electoral process.
The party will move faster as long as it has not abandoned the politics of rationality, but now it is bringing it forward as an instrument of distrust. And it is simultaneously forced to be careful not to create panic. In this context, the value of the document presented by the opposition is great and must be read carefully. If there is no reflection and police and troops continue to be used on this issue, the opposite will happen. Voters will again have the feeling that the result was written before the vote is cast. This is the greatest moral crisis of this process.
