President Vjosa Osmani reacted following the software failure at the Central Election Commission (CEC), which prevented the publication of results by the CEC.
“However, after the software failure, which has been confirmed by the CEC, the President has requested that the integrity of the electoral process be protected, ensuring that every vote is accurately counted,” Osmani wrote.
“The President will continue to stay in contact with all relevant institutions until full assurance is given that the entire electoral process, including counting and publishing the results, is conducted in accordance with the highest democratic standards and the will of the citizens.”
