Sunday, 07 April 2013 14:20
Baghdad (AIN) –MP, Walid al-Mohammadi, of the Iraqiya Slate described the decision of postponing the local elections in Anbar and Nineveh provinces as “Illegal and unconstitutional.”
Speaking to All Iraq News Agency (AIN) on Sunday, he said “There are 16 political blocs in Anbar province are participating in the next Provincial Councils elections where 13 of them requested to hold the elections on time and three requested to postpone them, but according to the request of these three blocs, the elections were postponed because they though that they will not get the votes and lose the elections.”
“We call to hold the elections on time to make all the Iraqis vote in the same day rather than dividing them in different days where there will be forgery,” he added.
“The special voting might be repeated or has some technical issues that are away from the flexibility and the independence of the elections,” he concluded. /End/
