TBILISI, Georgia — All sides have claimed victory in Georgia’s parliamentary election that many citizens see as a make-or-break vote on the opportunity to join the European Union.
The biggest opposition party, United National Movement, said its headquarters came under attack on polling day.A video shared on social media Saturday also showed a man stuffing ballots into a box at a polling station in the town of Marneuli, 42 kilometers south of the capital, Tbilisi. Georgia’s Interior Ministry said it launched an investigation and the Central Election Commission said a criminal case had been opened and that all results from the polling station would be declared invalid.
Georgians want “European integration, want to move forward and want policies which will bring us a better, more stable, future,” Qristine Tordia, 29, told The Associated Press shortly after voting in Tbilisi. Ivanishvili voted Saturday morning under heavy security. He did not respond when asked by the AP if he wanted to form an alliance with Russia.
