After withdrawing to the deliberation room, the Electoral College resumed its meeting today, amid heightened tensions over requests for additional evidence that could affect the fate of parliamentary mandates.
While the socialist majority insists on a full reopening of the process, the representative of the Democratic Party, lawyer Eridian Salianji, has reacted harshly to the court's actions and accused the institution of violating legal boundaries.
At the center of the debate are the decisions of the Central Election Commission on the distribution of mandates in 12 districts, which the Socialist Party seeks to submit as evidence along with the relevant appeals for each case. This move has been interpreted by the opposition as an attempt to relativize the final decisions and to push the process in a direction not foreseen by the law.
Lawyer Salianji stated that the court is going beyond the scope of the trial, interfering in completed acts that have not been requested for review by any party. He also requested that a copy of all new evidence be made available, warning of a lack of transparency and excess of powers by the College.
" The decision on Tirana has been tried before. We demand all the decisions that have changed the decisions of the mandate announcement. We are heading towards an extralegal trial ," Salianji declared in the hall.
In this heated procedural climate, it is awaited with interest what the College will decide and whether the SP's demands will pave the way for a complete reconsideration of the parliamentary composition or will be rejected as unfounded. This meeting could mark a dangerous precedent for the integrity of the electoral processes in the country.
