"The already changed rule of election of the head of the election administration by the supreme legislative body, which provides for the election of the chairman of the CEC with a high quorum, with the consent of 90 deputies, cannot be implemented, and we have the ineffective practice of electing the chairman of the commission every 6 months, which is not useful, acceptable, and what's more , is a hindering factor in the commission's work process. This is the failure and retreat of the ruling party".
Parliamentary about it Chairman of the political group "European Socialists" Fridon Injia said at the meeting with the delegation of the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR).
The purpose of the visit of the OSCE/ODIR delegation to Georgia is to discuss the findings and recommendations presented in the report, to bring the election-related legislation and practice into closer compliance with the obligations undertaken before the OSCE, and to determine the areas of future cooperation and specific steps to be taken.
According to the chairman of the political group, "According to the new change in the code of conduct, the election process will be conducted by electronic system until 70%. Therefore, it is important to have a special control of the election process at the polling stations before 30%, above Tu 30%, because it is in this part that the greatest danger of election fraud is present. Therefore, it is necessary to have a special approach to this specific situation in order to avoid fraud."
Fridon Injia believes that the use of administrative resources during the elections is still a big problem, which is manifested in the pressure on the voters.
"In the existing project, the possibility of using administrative resources has been tightened, but I do not consider this to be enough. There should be such a method of punishment that it is not worth it for a person to falsify", said Fridon Injia.
