schedule 12:20 - 9 Mars, 2020

A meeting between political representatives at the electoral reform  is under way, which was convened more than 30 minutes ago in Rogner.

The 9 main points of opposition for the election administration are clarified.

1.The opposition proposes depoliticizing the administration of voting and counting, to maintain political balance.

2.A non-political member appointed by the KQZ (the election commission) should be solely responsible for administering the vote.

3.The role of the non-political member is crucial in the depoliticisation of voting.

4.The opposition proposes that the count be carried out by non-political officials trained and appointed by the KQZ.

5.Political parties will no longer have counters, but will closely monitor the count and contest any violations.

6.The non-political commissioner, appointed by the KQZ will manage legal procedures as well as law enforcement responsibilities.

7.In order to prevent and eliminate voting irregularities, it is proposed to introduce mandatory recount of 10% of ballot boxes by the KQZ.

8.If problems arise from the recounting, electoral subjects have the right to request the opening of other boxes in the KZAZs(Local Election Commission of Albania)  where problems arise.

9.If the recount changes the result, the counters and responsible commissioners  will be penalized and will sent to prosecution.

According to them, these measures interact in complexity with measures previously proposed by the United Opposition to guarantee the freedom and secrecy of the electorate./abcnews.al
