Elections in Kvemo Kartli Region – Traditional Violations
Various sorts of violations were observed during the
municipal elections in Kvemo Kartli region as it was expected. The main
characteristic feature of the municipal elections in the region was
problem to distinguish the commission members from the National
Movement and opposition parties from each other. Very often, the
representatives of the opposition parties interfered in our activities
and called us provocateurs. After our entrance into the polling
stations, the main interest of the commission members was our rapid
departure from there.
