Lukashenka didn’t allow any oppositionists to “parliament”

19

The results of the “election” in 110 constituencies show none of the opposition figures has got to the “house of representatives”.

Head of the Central Election Commission Lidziya Yarmoshyna said it at a press conference in Minsk today.

The “election” ended in the first voting. According to the official data, turnout was 75.3 per cent.

This election was the most non-alternative in the history of modern Belarus. Only 2.4 candidates contested for a seat in the “house of representatives”. Election was non-alternative in 15 constituencies, with one representative of the authorities. The number of constituencies without democratic candidates was 40.

There were no democratic candidates in 9 out of 20 constituencies in Minsk. 263 candidates run in the “election”. 365 people applied for registration. About 80 applicants weren’t registered, more than 20 withdrew their candidatures.

An extremely low rate of representatives of the opposition political parties in polling station election commissions – only 47 people out of 69.865 (0.07 per cent) demonstrates that there was no fair votes counting and the results were rigged again, the opposition thinks.
