Ana Natsvlishvili said that our representative in Zugdidi was physically assaulted. We demand an immediate response to this fact, and we will not tolerate any violation without a legal response.
She spoke of the possible violations that could occur at the polling station and noted the most common violation is the giving of two ballots to voters.
According to her there are several facts that create an inappropriate environment for media representatives and observers, and that obstruct them in various areas.
Natsvlishvili urges the election commissions, to fulfill their legal duties and ensure the election process is conducted in a legal and peaceful environment.
“The day of Georgia’s great triumph over the Russian oligarch dawned on October 26.” I would like thank all the citizens of Georgia who have already come to vote at the polling stations. Tbilisi is experiencing unprecedented activity, and so are other cities. Despite the heavy rainfall in West Georgia, the people are voting in the morning. I want to thank them all and urge the citizens to exercise their right to vote.
The headquarters of “Strong Georgia“, which is located in Georgia, is fully operational. We have representatives at all Georgian polling stations. We monitor the voting process, and we react to any violations. We will protect every Georgian citizen‘s vote from Russian oligarchs.
We have identified several violations and have taken action. The 11th and 17th Precincts in the 59th District in Kutaisi and the 16th, 30th and 11th Precincts in the 1st District of Mtatsminda are the locations. In the 22nd Precinct, Chugureti. In the 59th Precinct, 32nd District, Gori. At this stage, the most common violation is to give two ballots. We will take note of everything and respond accordingly. I also want to inform you that an observer from “Strong Georgia”, who was three hours late to the 72nd Special District in Kutaisi (a penitentiary), was allowed entry. This is a violation. In several areas there are instances of creating an unsuitable environment and obstructing media representatives and observers.
We urge the election commissions in Georgia to comply with the law, fulfill their legal duties and ensure that the election process is conducted in a peaceful and legal environment. We will also demand an immediate response from them, as they have informed me that our representative in Zugdidi was physically assaulted. We will not tolerate any interference without a legal response,” Natsvlishvili stated.
