While in the camp of the socialists the party broke out in the morning hours, the defeat was expected in the opposing camp and especially in that of OMONIA, which had placed its candidate Petro Gjikuria in front of Vangjel Tavos.
The images showed not only disappointment but also nervousness about the electoral failure in the by-elections. Even at one point, it was the General Secretary of OMONIA, at the same time the chairman of KZAZ no. 88 of Himara, Marin Suli, who was filmed after the announcement of the victory of Vangjel Tavos as mayor. As he stood alone behind the ballot boxes, Suli is seen holding his head in his hand and then lighting a cigar to overcome electoral stress and upset over the sudden loss.
As with Fredi Beleri on May 14, 2023, even though from the cell, OMONIA, PBDNJ and the Greek factor expected the victory of Gjikuria as well, but this did not happen again. Suli also clashed during the voting process yesterday (August 4), as he accused the socialists of threatening the commissioner of the “Together We Win” coalition with his life in the village of Vranisht.
