The member of the Vetëvendosje Movement in the Central Election Commission (CEC), Alban Krasniqi, has accused the Supreme Court after it rejected as unfounded the appeal of the Vetëvendosje Movement regarding the decision of the Electoral Panel for Complaints and Submissions dated November 30, regarding voting centers outside Kosovo for the early elections of December 28.
"The Supreme Court, like the ECAP, spoke with the language of the PDK and LDK in their joint venture to fight the diaspora's right to vote. The integrity of the elections is not threatened by the diaspora, but by the opposition and such judges who make decisions according to orders without a shred of integrity and transparency," Krasniqi wrote.
The ECAP has accepted as grounded the complaint of the LDK against the decision of the Central Election Commission regarding the voting centers outside Kosovo, the number of polling stations and the list of voting centers. The ECAP has decided that only Kosovo diplomatic missions and their premises shall be designated as voting centers outside Kosovo.
Krasniqi assessed that no article of the Law on Elections or the electoral rules prohibits voting in spaces that the diplomatic mission can provide for voting.
He said that the integrity of the process is not related to whether you are in a cultural center or a business office as a representative.
"Integrity is related to the technical, logistical, and administrative preparations for organizing and managing elections. So, integrity is not determined by the quality of the building. With the fish-brain logic that these two levels have operated, it follows that the Palace of Justice should be closed because it does not meet the integrity criteria due to technical problems, air conditioning, elevator, cafeteria, etc. In fact, integrity is related to how organized and how independent the justice system is," Krasniqi wrote.
