The CEC began organizing the elections with one fewer member.

The Central Election Commission began preparing for these elections without having its full composition. It is missing the 11th member, who must be appointed by the acting president, Albulena Haxhiu. The LVV claims that it has the right to representation by a third member, and the PDK demands the second. If Haxhiu decides against their request, the PDK warned that they would address the Constitutional Court.

The Central Election Commission (CEC) has begun organizing the June 7 snap elections with one fewer member.

The 11th member would have to be appointed by former president Vjosa Osmani, or now acting president Albulena Haxhiu.

In the proposals sent to the Presidency, Vetëvendosje claims that it is entitled to the third member, while PDK claims that the Constitution guarantees it the second member.

The Presidency had previously told KOMA that after reviewing the documentation, a decision on the matter would be made, in accordance with the Constitution. In response to a question sent on Friday asking whether the documentation had been reviewed, this institution did not provide an answer.

The former head of the LVV parliamentary group, Arbërie Nagavci, says that the entity she represents is awaiting the Presidency's decision.

"We have sent the request and we believe it belongs to us (the third member of the CEC). We have not received a response yet, so for details, consult with the Presidency," said Nagavci.

And the PDK representative in the CEC, Ilir Gashi, says that the last member to complete the composition of the Commission should be from the Democratic Party. If this does not happen, he said that his party will address the Constitutional Court.

"First of all, it weakens the representation based on the law and the Constitution, of the parliamentary groups and in this case it weakens the representation of the PDK and the opposition as a whole. And of course, the two-thirds vote, which also includes the issue of results, registrations and certification of political entities and candidates, which inevitably requires two-thirds, damages decision-making and serves some more and some less," said Gashi.

The request for the appointment of a PDK member to the CEC, Gashi said, was also mentioned to Haxhiu in the meeting she had with political parties to set the date for early elections.

The Constitution stipulates that the six members of the CEC are appointed by the six largest parliamentary groups, which do not hold reserved seats. And, if there are fewer parliamentary groups in the Assembly, the Constitution provides that the largest groups may appoint additional members.
