​KDI indicates when election results can be certified

The results of the February 9 parliamentary elections could be certified by the middle of next week at the latest.

This was said by Eugen Cakolli from the Kosovo Democratic Institute (KDI), after the ECAP rejected all complaints filed by political entities that opposed the election results or sought intervention in the process.

He said that according to legal procedures, political entities have 48 hours from receiving the ECAP decision to exercise their right to appeal to the Supreme Court, and the latter has 96 hours to review and decide on these complaints.

"Following the dynamics so far, if an appeal is filed with the Supreme Court - assuming that it too will not go beyond the arguments of the ECAP - the results could be certified by the middle of next week at the latest," Cakolli wrote in a Facebook post.

According to the final CEC data, the Vetëvendosje Movement (LVV) leads with over 390.000 votes or 42.30 percent.

The Democratic Party of Kosovo (PDK) came in second with over 190.000 votes, or 20.95 percent, followed by the Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK) with over 170.000 votes, or 18.27 percent.

In fourth place is the coalition between the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo (AAK) and the Social Democratic Initiative with over 66.000 votes or 7.06 percent.

The Serbian List – the largest Serb party in Kosovo – secured over 39.000 votes or 4.26 percent.

With these percentages, LVV has secured 48 seats in the Kosovo Assembly, PDK, 24, LDK, 20 seats, Serbian Lista nine seats, and the AAK-Nisma coalition, eight seats.

Over 2 million citizens of Kosovo had the right to vote in this electoral process, while the participation was 46.54 percent. /Telegrafi/
