In Durres and Tirana, the result continues to remain very close. Vangjush Dako in Durres, the current mayor, same as Rama in Tirana, is leading the race, based on the ballot boxes counted up to now, while Sejdini in Elbasan has left his rival far behind.
The counting process has continued very slowly since Tuesday and not without incidents, blockings or delays like in Tirana’s Municipal Units 8 and 10. Other incidents took place after midnight at Municipal Unit no. 6 in “Kombinat”, where until that moment the situation had been very calm and without problems.
