About 49.2% of the voters marked their ballots by 19.00. The residents of Basarabeasca and Dubasari districts remain the most active voters. The turnout of voters there was 63% and, respectively, 59.7%. The turnout in the Autonomous Territorial Unit of Gagauzia was the poorest – of only 44%. More than 50% of the voters made their choice in Chisinau, Info-Prim Neo reports. The secretary of the Central Election Commission (CEC) Iurie Ciocan said that the turnout at 19.00 was similar to that in the April 5 elections. As to the voting process in the Transnistrian region, Ciocan said that the voters there do not encounter problems. The polling place set up in China was already closed owing to the difference in the time zone. During the day, the CEC received a number of complaints from observers. “The complaints are based on suppositions yet. Members of the Commission are examining some of them. At the next meeting, we will make decisions on every case apart,” Ciocan said. The first preliminary election results will be announced at 23.00.
