Albania is holding parliamentary elections on May 11th. Voting begins at 07:00 throughout the country and ends at 19:00. After this time, only those in line at the polling station will be able to vote. 5,225 polling stations have been set up across the country. 

On Sunday, 3,713,761 Albanian citizens, both inside and outside the country, have the right to vote. For the first time in the history of parliamentary elections in the country, the electoral lists include two categories: Voters living inside the country; Voters living abroad. 245,935 Albanians in the diaspora were registered to vote.

114,642 voters are voting for the first time this Sunday. Meanwhile, 1,081 people have been disenfranchised due to decriminalization, which prevents people who have committed a series of serious crimes from voting.

On the ballot, Albanians will find 11 political entities this time, of which 3 are coalitions, and 9 are parties competing alone.

Each electoral subject has 186 names in the race, distributed by districts. 2,046 people are candidates for the next parliament, to occupy 140 Assembly seats. This time, no independent candidate is competing in any district of the country.
