The official voting schedule in Himare has ended. At 19:00, all 36 voting centers were closed and it is expected that the vote counting process will start soon, as well as the first projections.
Within a few hours, the saga of the mayor of Himara, which began with the arrest of Fredi Beler and then of the acting mayor, Jorgo Goro, is expected to end.
A story that stretched over a period of more than a year and that brought clashes and political accusations both at home and abroad.
The result of the elections tonight is expected to give a solution to a 15-month battle for the first of the Himarjots. 23 thousand voters with the right to vote had the opportunity to choose between two candidates, Vangjel Tavo of the Socialists and Petro Gjikuria of the opposition.
At 19:00, all 36 voting centers were closed and it is expected that the vote counting process will start soon, as well as the first projections. Currently, people who were in line before the end of the official schedule are still voting.
According to information from the CEC, 36.68 percent, or 8394 voters, participated in the voting process until 18:00. A participation about 3 percent higher than last year.
Meanwhile, 6,000 voters in Himare failed to exercise their right to vote because their identification cards had expired. The figure was also confirmed by the state election commissioner, Ilirjan Celibashi.
Precisely for this issue, the opposition has raised accusations against the majority and the CEC, for not allowing the exercise of the right to vote for those citizens whose ID cards had expired.
The head of PBDNJ, Vangjel Dule, has had claims that the candidate of the Socialist Party for the Municipality of Himara, Vangjel Tavo, has added fictitious voters.
Also, the deputy of the Democratic Party, Flamur Noka, made strong accusations against the majority, stating that they paid up to 500 euros for a vote.
Apart from the accusations of the opposition, the rest of the process had no incidents or irregularities reported./ Pamphlet
