None of the representatives of oppositional political parties was included in territorial election commissions for local elections. It has been stated today, on October 23 at the session of heads of election headquarters of political parties.
As the BelaPAN was informed by the head of the election headquarters of the United Civil Party Anatol Paulau, more than 100 representatives of opposition have been nominated to territorial commissions by all political subjects working within the framework of the campaign “Local elections”. “We consider that as a confirmation of a well-known idea. There won’t be any elections in Belarus,” A. Paulau said.
He also noted that today at the session of the heads of headquarters issues related to education of future candidates to local Soviets, and legal assistance to them, have been discussed. The UCP and the Belarusian Popular Front Party, in particular, stated that they are ready to provide services of their lawyers to candidates.
It is worth mentioning that more than 1.500 commissions have been formed. Each of them has from 7 to 11 members (for commissions of a lower level), and from 9 to 13 members (for commissions of the basic level).
