The Polish Lithuanian-Union of Christian Families (LLRA-KŠS) electoral campaign announces a landslide victory in the Seimas elections, despite the fact that in a constituency of several members it did not exceed 5%. barrier.
LLRA-KŠS announced the victory in the Vilnius region on its website. It is true that the information is provided only in Polish. A post in Lithuanian and Russian stating that the party raised 5.01 percent. votes are not published.
The party managed to “achieve” such a victory by counting only valid ballots alone. This calculation method is invalid.
“According to the final results, in yesterday’s parliamentary elections, LLRA-KŠS received 5.01 percent. Valid votes. Unfortunately, the law provides for the inclusion of invalid votes, which gave 4.82%. And prevented inclusion of members of the list “, reads the message in Polish of the party.
The party estimates that a landslide victory has been achieved in up to 120 districts.
“The Polish national minority, concentrated around the LLRA-KŠS, represents about 6 percent. The Lithuanian population received 5 percent. Support throughout the country. On the other hand, in the Vilnius region, where Poles live in nearby, it has achieved a phenomenal result, winning more than 120 polling stations, which is 6% in the country, ”the publication reads.
Valdemaras Tomaševskis, the leader of the party, announced similar calculations at a post-election press conference: in his introductory speech, the politician stressed that he thanked everyone who voted for the party, “there were more than 5% of them, counting all the votes valid and 4.82%. counting all those involved “.

Commenting on the results after the elections, V. Tomaševskis repeatedly used a double counting system and emphasized that by counting only valid ballots, his party would have exceeded 5 percent. limit.
“When evaluating the results of the elections, it is clearly disappointing, on the one hand, that we lacked a small number of votes to exceed 5% of the turnout. barrier, but like I said, I want to be happy that we have maintained our 5% positions. of valid (newsletters), this is not a bad result either, given the high competition, a greater number of lists. So I think that in the future we will be able to maintain the positions that we have now, ”said V. Tomaševskis during the press conference.
The party leader has previously promised without crossing the 5 percent. cartel, he will retire from the position of chairman of the LLRA-KŠS. When asked if he intended to keep his promises, Tomaszewski said he was taking responsibility and reiterated that the party still managed to increase 5%. votes – valid ballot papers only.
