The political organization “European Action Movement” (MAE) does not recognize the results of the legislative elections. On April 7, it called on the Democratic parties to make public all the violations identified by them and demand that the Central Election Commission (CEC) re-counted the votes. “We sincerely regret the election outcome and that the Democratic parties rejected the MAE’s proposal to create a preelectoral pole,” the MAE leader Anatol Petrencu said during a news conference held at Info-Prim Neo. “The CEC has not checked the electoral registers. In some of the settlements, the MAE was stamped “Withdrawn” in ballots, while in the native village of the representative of the Communists Igor Dodon, his father gave by 30 lei to the people to vote for the Communists,” said Vitalia Pavlicenco, who ran on the MAE ticket. Pavlicenco also said that some of the persons that voted at a polling place set up on P. Zadnipru Street in Chisinau did not get the “Elections 05.04.09” stamp in their identity cards, while some of the members of the electoral offices went with the mobile box to people’s homes without being called. “All these cases show that the PCRM held dirty elections. We consider that the proofs of vote rigging are enough for not validating the elections,” said the former president of the National Liberal Party. Alexandra Can, who was a candidate on behalf of the MAE, said that all the measures initiated under the National Anticorruption Pact will be continued. “They are needed in continuation given that the PCRM has all the chances of holding the power in the country during another four years. We will follow how the Democratic parties that pledged to observe the Pact will fulfill their obligations,” Alexandra Can said. Asked what steps the MAE will take in continuation, Anatol Petrencu assured that they will not disappoint their voters and will actively participate in the next local and parliamentary elections. “We remain an active political party that will follow what will happen in the Parliament and outside it. We do not want to disillusion our voters that put their trust in us,” Petrencu said. According to the preliminary results presented by the CEC, the MAE won 1.01% of the vote.
