Some facts and arguments for the defeat of the DP and the opposition

May 14 registered a very weak result for the opposition coalition.

There are many facts and arguments: the division, the kidnapping of the seal, the non-unification, the non-creation of the spirit, Ilir Meta on one side, the return of Berisha, the serviles of Basha who went to the Doctor, there are no new figures, there is no hope, the sale and purchase of vote and with hundreds of such facts and arguments you can find to justify, but we will try to briefly bring with an analysis some stubborn arguments and facts.

First, the opposition did not bring the best candidates.

Even though it was said that heavy weights are being played, the local election candidates that Berisha's coalition offered were not heavy weights, without talking about the service that Alibeaj and the Democratic Party of Vula did to Prime Minister Rama.

Their goal was to reduce the percentage of votes that each opposition candidate would receive, so that they would not go over 40%, over 45%, so as not to create a spirit and so on.

However, they achieved their goal.

Why weren't they the best candidates?

First, Luciano Boçi is a recycled candidate from the candidacy in 2007, he lost the Municipality of Elbasan, became a deputy for 2-3 terms and returns to Elbasan to run again, after he called himself strong, because he broke the list within the opposition .

Luciano Boçi

In fact, breaking the list within the opposition is not total citizen support. Breaking the opposition list in a district is a support given to the party and the democrats in your entire district from an injustice done to you by the chairman.

So, Luciano Boçi had 16 years in the politics of Elbasan and after a decade and a half the democrats gave him the same name and figure.

He may be an honorable and respected man, but the question arises: for 16 years, the Democratic Party did not produce a name for the Municipality of Elbasan that could compete with the socialists?

Whose deformity is it? Whose disability is it? Whose lack of political development is it?

We go to Durrës, to Igli Cara, ex-president of the DP, ex-MP.

They took him out of the office, tore open the door, and took the keys. Yes, he took the keys from the one who lost the elections in Shkodër, Bardh Spahia, along with others.

Failed elections in Durrës. There was no better candidate than Igli, perhaps. But the question arises: How is it possible that the PD offers Durrës again the same individual who had him as president, had him as a deputy, and brought him back as president.

Didn't Durrës produce another name, in more than a decade and a half, to rival Vangjush Dako, either Ardian Çela, or a young architect who was taken from the street and made the mayor of Durrës?

We go further. We go down to Korça.

Excellent candidacy, Ledina Aliolli. Member of Parliament, president of the women's forum for many years, whenever there is a race, she runs. A supporter of Lulzim Basha, the democrats abandoned her, they did not vote for her en masse.

He could never muster the spirit to win.

And since 2005, Ledina always runs in 18 years. In these 18 years, the DP of Korça could not produce another name, while it has had the recycling of figures and access to civic figures outside of politics much more developed than any other branch of the DP in Albania. The facts speak for themselves.

We go to Shkodër, where the disaster is read.

The electoral catastrophe of Shkodra with Bardh Spahina. Journalists who were on the ground a year ago in Shkodër know very well that they did not like Bardh Spahi. He won by chance, simply and only by following the sigla. They expected it to have a different name now. Bardh Spahia was called as an arrogant, haughty name. Maybe a good friend, the son of a great intellectual like Ali Spahia, but it is not said that you resemble your father in everything.

Bardh Spahia was mayor for more than a year. The citizens of Shkodra saw it, nothing changed, it remained stagnant. One argues his arrogance and incompetence, but that matters little. A candidate with essential right-wing origins like Benet Beci, an associate of the DP and Berisha, goes, does not use the SP logo, in the end Luizi comes and raises a wave, and the result in the first days is overturned.

But Bardh Spahia had been a deputy, a candidate for deputy, in the structures of the FRPD, an activist, but not always Bardh Spahia. There are no other democrats in Shkodra, a figure was not created in these years, as the DP saw a year ago in the elections how subtle the result was. Leaving aside the part that did not analyze the social aspects, such as the case of Louis Aille, which was the trend and will be for some time in our country.

We go further south. We go to Fier.

What to say to the candidate. Better result. We go to Vlora, but let's take these who we called heavyweights, there are also catastrophic losses like Dr. Admir Sinamati in Kukës, which all happened as a result of Alibeaj and the seal party, but the analysis of the facts brings us to the conclusion that the candidates were no better, they were recycled candidates, reused candidates, candidates who had lost before, candidates who had held power, names, who had strong allegations of corruption, names brought back, but the citizens make a simple question: have you brought us the same people for 15 years?

The 2025 elections will be just as disastrous

In 2013, they overthrew the government for these names. They did not vote for Lulzim Basha, but for these names. Sali Berisha comes and offers them the same names that he had. And the Albanians are to blame for not voting.

No! The Albanians have no fault and cannot be judged in this case. What should be judged is the political caste, how they will recycle, how they will keep names in circulation or hoping they will win the elections with whatever name you offer them, even worse in the local elections, where you give reused names, it is impossible to create spirit and come to power with such political games.

The 2025 elections will be just as disastrous if the same logic continues. Without talking here about a totally dysfunctional organization from south to north, with some small exceptions perhaps giving a greater appreciation to Tirana and some other municipality, most were where the qameti calls./ CNA.al
