Vote-buying, hate speech and black campaign have marked the election silence

Vote-buying, hate speech and black campaign have marked the election silence
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

CIVIL’s monitoring team has noted over 20 reports of violations of the election silence. Many party activists used yesterday with their final efforts to provide sufficient voters for their candidates for mayors and list carriers.

On the other hand, it could be noted that the police were available and mobile enough to react timely to the reports of the citizens.

Our observers on the ground informed that the black campaign had not stopped not even for a moment.

Leaflets, flyers and brochures were distributed in front of the doors of citizens in Aerodrom, Novo Selo, Matejce, Otlja…party flags and open headquarters…putting up posters, all with hate speech against the opponent.

Neither threats nor verbal violence were missing.

A principle of a primary school threatened employees that he would expel them from work if they did not go to vote. The case has been reported to the police.

The Facebook profiles of party activists testify as to how proactive party activists were, but so do the night excursions for vote-buying.

Let us remind that there was such a case in Resen, for which CIVIL Media informed yesterday, concerning 4.500 Denars in a Roma neighborhood. The police reacted in time.

A similar case has been noted by an observer in Karpos last night, where party activists, with a list of people for whom they presumed would be politically neutral, had been determining how and with how much to bribe them in order for those people to vote for a certain candidate.

Many candidates used the silence of the others to call on the electorate and tell them who to vote for.

The message that reached a member of the coordinative body of CIVIL – Center for Freedom on who to vote for and on how to get acquainted with the party, testifies to the efforts for attaining a greater number number of people to whom the message on who to vote for reaches.

CIVIL will publish the uncensored audio recording of the telephone conversation and the party it concerns, today after 7:00 pm.

However, perhaps the biggest remark is in terms of the Electoral Boards in regards to the voting of the sick and frail, as well as those in prisons.

For example, in counting the ballots in one polling station, there were two ballots with the same serial number.

A voter, with a proper request to the State Election Commission for voting from home, and one that was accepted by them, did not have anyone come to his home until 7:00 pm for him to vote. After calling the SEC, he was promised that someone would come after 8:00 pm. Of course that did not happen.

According to CIVIL’s sources, the Voters Register had been incomplete in the voting that took place in the prisons. More specifically, a large number of prisoners with valid identity cards were not able to realize their voting right because they were not on the Voters Register.

Election silence obviously does not mean a stop in the constructions works in several municipalities in Macedonia, if nothing else, municipalities can say they were providing access to the polling
