By March 6, political parties had agreed on election funding. What the parties have not yet agreed on is the depoliticization of the election administration.

They also strongly agreed that electronic voting and counting should be experimented with in some vein municipalities. A third point on which the parties agreed was the restriction of the election period in spring and autumn.

There are some points where the parties do not agree. The first is the depoliticization of the electoral administration, proposed by the SP, which consists of the dissolution of the KQZ(Central Election Commission) . But this was not accepted by the opposition representatives at the meeting. Today meeting will show if  KQZ will have a new formula. /abcnews.al
