The lawyer Rezart Kthupi, part of the "Djathtas 1912" party, has commented on the last decision of the Constitutional Court, which rejected the appeal of small parties for open lists.
He said that in this decision, the Constitutional Court was not in coherence with the decision given by it in 2021.
Kthupi also stated that regardless of the decision given by the Constitutional Court, the small parties will continue the battle for the opening of the lists before but also after the next year's elections.
"The Constitutional Court, in coherence with previous decisions, should have adopted a democratizing position for parties to compete with open lists. A decision not coherent with that of 2021. At least from what has been published, it appears that in 2024 he does not take the same position, but estimates that the favorable vote is sufficient only as a voting effect, but not as a product of this vote.
The issue of the open list will remain at the will of the political parties. If the parties will use that part of the code for closed lists they will apply it. If they want to take candidates to closed lists and take the weight of individuals to open lists, it will be their will.
The issue of lists will continue during the campaign and after the election campaign. This is not a simple fight for the vote, but over the logical system as it is built by the two big parties, who want to limit and harden the system in their favor. This fight will continue throughout the next mandate. A fight that we hope will liberate the election process", said Kthupi for "Vizion Plus".
