The first round of voting on 29 June closes. PS gangs dominate the ballot boxes The OSCE troika: “We have not heard about the serious irregularities”

The PD will treat the verdict of 29 June with dignity Believers and Albanians For the Democratic Party, yesterday's elections renewed the discrediting of the entire action of the communist power imposed by force. Your response is especially harsh for the Democratic Party in a parliamentary democracy. We do not evade responsibility. For the government and the state are in the hands of those you chose. As for the elections, we will treat the voters' verdict with dignity and fully respect the result of these elections. This is in keeping with the outlook and democratic ideals of the PD. We will be a strong and constructive opposition to the new government. But yesterday's elections were one of the darkest events in the history of Albania. They were completely dominated by armed mercenaries of the controlled revolt, by communist rebels in masks and blinded by primitive hatred of your democratic freedoms. The red gangs of violence were put at the service of manipulating the elections with the most brutal methods. Armed, drunken men threatened commissioners, observers, and voters at the polling stations. Violence, terror, and fear replaced the rules of free competition. Albanian citizens suffered the gravest contempt for their will. The responsibility for this situation lies with the authors and sponsors of this climate. Nevertheless, Albania will move forward. Democrats will not retreat from the ideals of freedom, the market, and Western orientation. ON PAGE 2

After a statement by the Minister of Defence Rumors of a possible manipulation, especially in Tirana, have increased, and manipulation is possible because a shameless manipulation has also occurred in the votes of the PD . According to unofficial information, over 60 percent of the electorate voted for a change in the form of government.

Contrasts of the unequal battle in the elections of 29 June Meanwhile, while we went to the elections, they continued the fight by killing and cutting up to the day of voting. While we never wavered in calling the revu[?]in of the vote. Such was the case, the head of the 6 committees full of Nano and Bashkim Fino never stopped them as they should have. These 29 June will enter the election[?]el, but they have given the opposite.
