During the day, representatives of the Democratic Front will hold meetings with representatives of other opposition parties, the civil sector and associations that supported Miodrag Lekić, in order to agree on further steps in defending Lekić's election results.
After decisions of the State Election Commission to reject all the objections of Lekić's staff on the work of the electoral committees, the DF presidency decided at today's meeting to organize urgent consultations regarding further steps.
"The decision of the majority in the SEC to reject with their votes the request of our Election Staff, to re-vote at 1.122 polling stations due to gross irregularities, represents the verification of election theft by the DPS, and the DF and the citizens of Montenegro will not accept that.
Now everyone can see that Đukanović, Marović and Vujanović were quite afraid of any form of resistance, and especially of the peaceful protests of the citizens of Montenegro. Because they know that the voters of Miodrag Lekić and the advocates of peaceful protests are the vast majority in Montenegro", according to the statement published after the session of the presidency.
The DF accused the government and part of the media of announcing destructive demonstrations without grounds. That is why, as they state, they are calling interlocutors from the region who should explain that the protests are not worth it.
"The authorities have alerted all their associates, old and new debtors. The goal is to convince the Montenegrin people, with the help of the regime media, that it is best to once again come to terms with election theft! Suddenly, for the former Belgrade rallyist, who has been living off those merits for two decades - the rallies themselves became meaningless! And for the famous democracy lecturer from Podgorica, peaceful protests suddenly became undemocratic and dangerous for security.
Then a former opposition member, under the mayor's too much influence, forgot that peaceful protests, everywhere in Europe, are a legitimate means of opposition struggle," the announcement states.
