At least 10 MPs. This is the record-breaking goal that Edi Rama has set for the Socialists in Fier, as from a meeting today where he presented the candidates for MP, he stated that the DP and the opposition have no chance against the left in this district.
"In Fier we will break the record in votes. In Fier, no one else has a chance, except the SP. They have nothing to gain. Whoever does not vote for the SP, casts their vote in vain. It will be a spectacular result. Our objective is a minimum of 10 deputies. Then, if we work harder, we can have even more deputies in parliament," Rama said.
Further, the head of government focused on the Democratic Party's list of candidates, describing it as a loser and stating that Sali Berisha is preparing a defeat speech for May 12.
He did not spare any irony as he stopped to comment on the Democratic Party's primaries process, even focusing on specific names that remained off the list despite triumphing in the internal race.
"We did not hold primaries but they did not have primaries but unprecedented ones... They left those who won out. The chairman of the DP in Kavaja comes first in the district and they left him out. If you look at the swamp list, it is a list for the opposition. It was made to be with a bunch of blind and deaf and quacks in the opposition. They neither see nor hear, they only recite. Quack quack! It was made ready to be in the opposition and on May 12th not to liberate TikTok, because there is nothing to liberate, but to say they stole it from us, we won but it was taken from us. Why then should the Democrats cast their votes in vain? For a group that simply functions as a narrow interest group that is prepared to remain in the opposition," said Rama.
Rama did not spare the accusations against Basha.
"On the other hand, the vote on May 11 is a vote for the passport. Some say that we are not members of the EU, but are promising a passport. You get a European passport when you enter the EU. Only Luli brings it to you differently. Luli, who sleeps so much that not a single hair moves, has named it the 'Euro-Atlantic coalition' and promises to abolish visas with the US. Only Luli can do this ," he said.
Rama continued with the promise to join Albania in the European Union by 2027, thus seeking votes for another governing mandate.
