• Elections to the Parliament of Unrepresented will go on several days

Latvijas Avize reports that the Congress of Non-Citizens will launch the elections to the Parliament of Unrepresented on 25May on the Internet and from 1 June to 11 June at the “polling stations” in different Latvian cities. As reported, these elections will be held at the same time as municipal elections on 1 June. Head of the Central Elections Committee Arnis Cimdars refused to comment the elections to the Parliament of Unrepresented as it is a political initiative. Advisor of the Minister of Justice Janis Tomelis, in his turn, stated that the Congress misleads people calling their elections as “universal elections” because only state can organise universal elections but the Parliament of Unrepresented is just a structure of the Congress.
