The actor of "Portokallisë", the presenter of "Piranha", Flor Binaj, who is an official opposition candidate for the Municipality of Tirana, has made a television appearance where he has revealed his idea for the campaign, he has made a different story about himself, although he was not the first, but this time he was in the role of a candidate.
Florjan Binaj is a name that is said to come from civil society, an opposition candidate who apparently doesn't know where he will get his votes from, but worse still, doesn't know who he represents.
First, he was supported as an independent candidate, a thesis that Berisha played politically like a master to remove responsibility for the DP's votes, its difficult situation it is going through after the 2025 elections, where it suffered a deep and perhaps the heaviest defeat since 1997.
Flor Binaj made a television appearance and from the first moment on television, choosing where to deliver the message shows us that he is the wrong candidate in the wrong place.
He may be an excellent family man, a very good and hardworking guy, but a candidate for the Municipality of Tirana, a man who wants to take the place of Erion Veliaj, cannot go and make his first appearance on television in partnership with the affair of the century, with the incinerator affair, with the Tirana incinerator that does not exist, where 130 million euros were paid and there is no incinerator. There is a structured criminal group on the Tirana landfill issue investigated by SPAK.
However, things are not yet finalized.
There is also a victim, a 17-year-old boy, Ardit Gjoklaj, and Flor Binaj chose to go there, to the television in partnership with the incinerators, to the structured criminal group of the incinerators, where one of the employees accused the owner of being a television of fines or the television itself, which then said that it had fired the fines collectors who had worked there for a long time.
Flor Binaj chose to appear on this screen. It is understandable with the GD doing 3-4 jobs at once. Flor Binaj chose to speak as an independent citizen, who thanked Sali Berisha for running and who did not want Sali Berisha in the campaign.
Does this Flor Binaj know that for better or worse, the hated, anathemaed, reviled Sali Berisha, who probably should have left politics, has taken the DP hostage, as some like to say, and on his worst day, he has 36% of the Albanian votes?
In the dark year of 1997, in half of Albania, he received almost 30% of the votes. Sali Berisha on the darkest day had 500,000 votes.
Where will Flor Binaj find the votes, who will vote for him? Will Lapaj and Agron Shehaj, who received 30 or 40 thousand votes in Tirana, vote for him? But the race is not about that, the race is about much more.
Who will vote for Florjan Binaj? Endri Shabani, who has fewer voters than passengers in a van? Who will vote for him? Free citizens? Definitely. The gray area? But how much is the gray area? Have you ever seen the polls, the voting, the boycott, the burnt vote and the vote that goes to small parties, how much is it?
It never goes from 10-15%. Albanians are divided into camps, they are fans in politics. Of course, the voting process is out of anger to vote against, but in Tirana they can vote against Erion Veliaj, but he is no longer that candidate. There is another candidate.
How much is this vote against? It's 10, 15 or 20%, it's always less than what Berisha has. The DP, for better or worse, always has 30-36% of the votes and Flor Binaj will have to start from 30 or so% above to rise and get the gray part of the votes.
Flor Binaj starts from 0%, starts from nothing, then starts the nonsense about spoiling ballots or not wanting party leaders from behind by killing militants. If you kill militants, there is no campaign, it's over, there is no chance.
Lulzim Basha came out with Sali Berisha, but he did not declare that he would not go out with Berisha. The DP came out to its meetings, Lulzim Basha did his campaign, but the DP was the machinery of power, etc., it is not the situation today.
Saying that he will not campaign with the mayors, that he will not campaign with this and that, Florjan Binaj, in this first message he gives from the television partner with the incinerators, called the television of fines, where will he go?
Where will he gather the votes? Who will vote for Florjan Binaj without the DP behind him, even without Adriatik Lapaj behind him, even without Argon Shehaj behind him?!
Endri Shabani may have 3 votes, but he should give it to Florjan Binaj because it may happen that they want to give it to him, but people listen to him and do not give him the vote precisely because of these messages and actions that come at a very delicate moment for him.
His television media appearance should have been much stronger, much clearer, and a message of distance from corruption, distance from incinerators, distance from fines, but Flor Binaj chose to be there, to include a slogan that he would not campaign with party leaders.
What is this message? What does it tell people? How does it motivate them?
Let the Democrats go, let these supporters of these mayors you don't like go to the campaign and paint the vote the way Binaj painted the vote, who didn't go to vote for the opposition, but spoiled the ballot.
Who will vote for them if they don't call their electorate?
Does Flor Binaj think that by having Saliu sitting in the office and shouting 'vote Florin, vote Florin' 5 times, people will vote for him? For what? What is the reason?
Is it because he is more skilled and professional than Ogerta Manastirliu or because of Erion Veliaj's anger? Or because he has some grand platform and strategy?
The Municipality of Tirana is not "Portokalli", where Flori worked and was paid from advertisements and money from incinerators, the affair of the century or other affairs that occurred in that media.
Therefore, Flori's start seems to be an own goal in the first minutes of the match./ CNA
