LLRA-KŠS did not exceed 5%. Electoral cartels of the Seimas. When this became clear, the rulers registered a draft resolution entitled “On the investigation of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Lithuania”.
With it, politicians are looking to the CC to assess whether the “Todo bien, Woldemortai” campaign started by the program’s host and public figure Andrius Tapinas during the Seimas elections and the violations in the Paneriai – Grigiškės single-member constituency had a significant impact on the Seimas elections.
He claims that the Seimas will make fun of the CC
It is true that the Seimas Legal Department pointed out that it was not the time for that: the deadlines for submitting a request to the CC with a request regarding the violation of the Seimas Elections Law expired last week, that is, 72 hours later that the Central Electoral Commission approved the final results of the Seimas elections.

However, the rulers presented the resolution to the Seimas, and its consideration took place on Tuesday.
The opposition parliamentarians explained that it no longer makes sense to appeal to the CC.
“If you look at it in a purely procedural way, the Constitutional Court may not accept this appeal at all. So the good wishes will remain good wishes, but nothing can be done. I would consider the appeal as a political statement,” said the Social Democrat. Julius Sabatauskas from the Seimas tribune.
I would view the appeal as a political statement.
Conservator Jurgis Razma explained that the content of the request to the CC is inappropriate and that the time to submit the request has already run out.
“If we passed a resolution to petition the Constitutional Court, I think that we, like Seimas, would be a bit ridiculed in the Constitutional Court for our legal illiteracy. We must clearly read what was written by the Legal Department, which indicated that the request had to be made within three days after receiving the corresponding request, that is, before November 3, inclusive. We all see what day it is, ”said the politician.
He wants a chance to defend himself
Rita Tamašunienė, LLRA-KŠS member, Minister of the Interior, hoped that the Seimas would approve the party’s initiative and provide an opportunity to “defend and defend its truth”. Earlier, according to her, it was not possible to do so due to the fault of the Speaker of the Seimas.
“The Seimas had to consider this draft resolution after 48 hours after the announcement of the election results, and our party filed a complaint on time, but the President of Seimas, not fulfilling his duties, did not inform the members of the Seimas, he did not organize a session. I want to thank you for that, at least today we are discussing it, “said R.Tamašunienė.

Seimas spokesperson Viktoras Pranckietis did not miss his words. He assured that the first letter regarding the application to Seimas to run for CC was received from Valdemaras Tomaševskis, president of LLRA-KŠS, on October 26. That same day it was examined by the Seimas Public Administration and Municipalities Committee, and no reasons were found to consider the request.
The president of Seimas stated that he had received another similar letter by personal mail on November 1 at 4:37 pm.
“It just came to our notice then. And, therefore, I did not have the opportunity to take any initiative in the use of the Seimas Election Law. [išnaudoti], and it made no sense to call a session of the Seimas, “he said.
“To resolve this situation and without using the Seimas Elections Law, I propose this resolution, which is proposed by the office, to give it the opportunity to be adopted today, that is, I propose a special urgency, since it requires a decision of the Court Constitutional to be adopted in the Seimas today. ” , – added the Speaker of the Seimas.
I offer special urgency.
They would have called an unscheduled meeting
The rulers requested that the Seimas of this composition fully examine the draft resolution “On the investigation of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Lithuania”.
“The signatures of 49 members of the Seimas have been collected for the extraordinary session tomorrow,” said Ramūnas Karbauskis, the ruling leader, on Tuesday before the session, adding that during this session, the Seimas could also support the LLRA’s wish. -KŠS to apply to the CC.
Unscheduled sessions of the Seimas are called and their time is set by the Board of the Seimas. So far it has not.

But it seems that an unscheduled session of the Seimas will not be necessary, because the president of the Seimas V. Pranckietis offered a special urgency to make a decision on the request to the CC on Tuesday.
Parliamentarians voted in favor.
According to the Statute, the special urgency in the consideration of projects should apply only “when there is an urgent need to safeguard the vital interests of society and the State.”
Special urgency applied
These are: the imposition or declaration of a state of war or emergency, as well as its revocation, declaration or mobilization, declaration of demobilization, decision to use armed force in case of armed attack and / or, where appropriate, international urgency, natural disasters or other emergencies; in the event of such a threat to the security of the State or of society, the elimination of which requires especially urgent decisions of the Seimas.

How all the members of the Seimas voted Check here.
The LLRA-KŠS asked the President of Seimas V. Pranckietis and President Gitanas Nausėda to address the CC regarding the results of the Seimas elections, but they did not agree to do so. According to them, the party did not provide substantiated arguments that serious violations of the law would be committed during the organization of the Seimas elections.
According to the LLRA-KŠS, the campaign started by A. Tapinas to prevent the party from entering parliament seriously violated the Seimas Elections Law.
The Central Election Commission stated that the “Todo Bien, Voldemortai” campaign and the “Todo Bien, Valdemarai” publication were negative LLRA-KŠS advertisements, but did not violate the electoral campaign law, since neither A. Tapinas nor “Laisvės TV “They participated in the political campaign.
A. Tapinas assured that he did not violate any legal act.
