“Yes, Vytenis is not on the list, because he is invited to hold various international positions. Therefore, being a member of the Seimas, participating and simply resigning from the mandate would be a little deception for the voters. We have also spoken openly in the meetings of the advice to make Vytenis contribution important, but no need to get involved in hypocrisy. What are we going to fool with that? Yes, Vytenis will definitely participate in the election campaign and be part of our team. But if you choose and have promised an answer to one or the other international organization will have to be given. Perhaps it is better not to mislead the voters and not manipulate the mandate, “G. Paluck told Eltai.
The LSDP president did not disclose what specific job offers V. Andriukaitis received.
After the party president in second place on the list, the elder of the LSDP faction in the Seimas Rasa Budbergytė (sole member of Šeškinė – Šnipiškė). It ranked first in the public ranking in early June. The third on the list is the mayor of the Jonava district municipality, Mindaugas Sinkevičius. Fourth: Orinta Leiputė (one-man Kalniečiai). Fifth – sociologist, economist prof. Romas Lazutka (sole member of Fabijoniškės), in the sixth – MP Julius Sabatauskas (sole member of Alytus), in the seventh – Member of the Seimas Dovilė Šakalienė (sole member of Old Town-Žvėrynas). Linas Jonauskas, who will participate in the eighth single-member Lithuanian world. In the ninth – Raminta Popovienė (sole member of Raudondvaris), the tenth – Member of the Seimas Algirdas Sysas (sole member of Molėtai-Širvintos).
The place on the list, according to G. Paluckas, was determined by the general internal classification of society and the party.
“Basically, society ranked, but our local and local party rating was also important. But we relied heavily on public opinion, because they will vote in the next election. I was not concerned about that, because society raised the Social Democrats more Active and strong. I am very happy with the public ranking, because it was really worth it, “he told Eltai.
When asked how non-party members were listed, the LSDP president replied that the party presidium had chosen a specific place on the list for them.
“It just came to our attention then. People who are not members of the group should be invited. I don’t even doubt that if Romas Lazutka had been rated by the public voice, he would not have been in a lower place than the current one, without any problem, because its provisions are very clear, “he said.
In the eleventh place, Linas Balsys, who works in the LSDP faction in Seimas, also does not belong to the party. In fifteenth place, the economist Vaidas Navickas, does not belong to the party either. Saulius Čaplinskas, head of the Center for Infectious Diseases and AIDS, received 19th place and 20th place for television presenter, journalist Giedrius Drukteinis. Cyclist Simona Krupeckaitė is in twenty-fifth place.
Psychologist Andrius Kaluginas is in his fortieth place.
Paluck also made no secret of the fact that the party roster had not only been renewed but also renewed prior to these elections.
“The list has been updated and updated. Yes, naked and statistically, this is the youngest list in LSDP history. Among the top ten, most young people, as far as I can remember, throughout the party’s history. But their experience and experience are certainly just as amazing. It cannot be said that an artificial rejuvenation has taken place. Everyone in their places (…) The renovation is also strong. A lot of people come to politics for the first time or go to national politics for the first time seriously, “he said.
When asked how he assessed that the list of “peasants” and conservatives was not led by party presidents, G. Paluckas said that this was a really flawed practice.
“It is a very poor fashion, because in the end who is responsible for the party’s program and its implementation, who is responsible for the party’s promises. Such duality after the elections makes it difficult to implement the party’s promised programs. For example, becoming Prime Minister instead of party leader allows to renounce the programmatic principles of the party. That is bad. This annoys voters and undermines their confidence in the political system and political parties. (…) I, as leader of the party, now I take full responsibility for the promises, the party program, the communication. After all, if we have that opportunity, I will be responsible for the implementation of these works, “he said.
According to him, the fact that he himself was not classified only preserved the transparency of the party list.
“The president is not qualified not to be involved in political deals, intrigues or games, to be able to maintain his backbone and to be able to do what needs to be done.” It is very easy to start manipulating and playing, listen, you support me now, you pick up my candidate, then we will support you, and so on. Only the part itself would suffer, as the list would not be as good as it could be. It would also harm society, because it would not see the candidates they wanted, “he said.
