The elections in Corjova, which is the birthplace of the leader of the Communist Party Vladimir Voronin, were won by the PCRM’s candidate Sergiu Oprea, who beat the PLDM’s candidate and former mayor Valeriu Mitul.

President of Promo-Lex Association Ion Manole has told Info-Prim Neo that the residents of Corjova took an active part in the elections even if the polling place for this village was set up in another settlement. This shows that the people really want to elect their administration. On the other hand, the candidates did not have the possibility of conducting election campaigns. “They were unable to inform the voters about their platforms, activities and results. The consciousness of the vote in Corjova is open to question as there were held no debates and meetings,” said Ion Manole.

Control over Corjova village of Dubasari district is disputed by the Moldovan constitutional authorities and the Transnistrian separatist administration. In order to avoid tensions and blocking the voting process, the polling place was established in Cocieri. A number of 633 persons of the 1,300 written on the rolls cast their votes there. 56.87% of them or 360 persons voted for the PCRM’s candidate, while 43.13% or 273 persons for the PLDM’s candidate.
