Prime Minister Sali Berisha declared that candidate of Alliance for
the Citizen, Lulzim Basha, leads Tirana mayoral race, but they will wait Central
Election Commission’s final result.

“We will wait the final result, but we are convinced that our candidate is 78 votes ahead of Rama, who has a phobia against votes. It is no crime if a vote is cast in wrong ballot boxes. But every vote must be counted. We are for the free vote, respecting the Constitution, whose article 45 says that vote is personal, free and equal”, Berisha declared.

Speaking on the meeting of the Parliamentary group, Berisha declared that in these elections, after 11 years, Tirana returns blue, signing one of greatest historical achievements.

The democratic leader declared that the result is narrow, thus it is a challenge for Albanian democracy to treat it within all legal frames.

“I say to those who threaten, that democracy is stronger than the systems they have used”, Berisha declared, adding that each vote must be counted, according the Albanian law.
