It is characteristic that two committees from the Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs have moved to Heimarra, while one will remain throughout the counting of votes.

At the same time, as he reported the envoy of SKAI in Albania, Christos Nikolaidisin the polling stations there are OSCE committees which carry out checks in order to establish whether the procedure is properly followed.

According to information from its electoral representatives Omonia the turnout was high as 8,200 voters came to the polls.
