The holder of the Naprijed Movement list in the elections in Podgorica, Vuk Kadić, said that the decision of the Constitutional Court to reject the appeal for a repeat of the elections in the town of Doljani was made politically, and there is also a dilemma.
"Is it more devastating that the Constitutional Court ruled contrary to its earlier decisions in Javljani, specifically, the decision from 21 when it repeated the elections in Javljani due to the same case, or is it devastating that everyone knew what the decision of the Constitutional Court would be court, but we waited two weeks for them to make that decision," Kadić told TV Vijesti.
At today's session, the Constitutional Court of Montenegro rejected the appeal of the Naprijed Movement to repeat the vote in Doljani.
The decision was made unanimously, with the dissenting opinion of the president of the Constitutional Court, Snežana Armenko.
The Naprijed movement, which was led by Vuk Kadić in the elections in Podgorica, submitted to the Constitutional Court appeals against the decisions of the State Election Commission, which rejected 14 objections related to, as they claim, irregularities in the elections in Podgorica.
The Constitutional Court told Vijesti that they will make a statement on 13 appeals later and that they will soon ask the SEC for a statement.
Until the Constitutional Court pronounces on the submitted appeals, the results of the elections in Podgorica, which were held on September 29, cannot be announced.
The Naprijed Movement list with 2,75 percent voter support remained below the threshold in the local elections in Podgorica on September 29, and they lacked about 200 votes to enter the city parliament. According to the preliminary results, the DPS won 19 seats in the city parliament, the coalition of the Europe Now Movement (PES) and Democrats won 14, the alliance "For the Future of Podgorica" won 13, the list "Za bolja Podgorica" won six, the European Union three, and Preokret and the Party of European Progress (SEP) two each.
