The counting of votes within the country for the Tirana district has closed. The DP-ASHM coalition received a total of 151,157 votes for this district, not including diaspora votes.

But how many votes did the Democratic Party allies receive in the Tirana district?

Referring to data published by the CEC, the two DP allies, Ilir Meta and Shpëtim Idrizi, who were running on an open list, both received a total of almost 10,000 votes, or even almost 9,500 votes, not counting the votes of the diaspora.

Meanwhile, these two parties have received 3 MP mandates in Tirana . Tedi Blushi and Erisa Xhixho from PL and Mesila Doda from PDIU have won the MP mandate as part of the closed list of the PD-ASHM coalition. So they have received three MPs in the Tirana district alone and have brought the Democratic Party only 10 thousand votes.

If you look at the data, the Democratic Party received 150 thousand votes in Tirana, of which Shpëtim Idrizi and Ilir Meta received 1900 votes and Meta 7600 votes, respectively.

Here's how many votes the DP allies received in Tirana

If we calculate , 151 thousand votes, divided by 13 mandates that the opposition won in Tirana, it turns out that to get one mandate, 11 thousand and 600 votes were needed . Meanwhile, Shpëtim Idrizi together with Ilir Meta together received about 9,500 votes and within them they have three mandates. For three mandates, about 34 thousand and 800 votes would be needed to get the 2 PL mandates and one PDIU mandate .

Meanwhile, they brought the opposition only 9,500 votes, not including diaspora votes.

The PL and PDIU MPs are totally illegal and unjustifiable for the opposition coalition . In a normal democratic country they would have resigned./ CNA
