2,000,000 citizens learned for sure that there is no court - this fight will definitely have another continuation, - Nona Qurdovanidze, head of the Association of Young Lawyers of Georgia, writes on the social network, thus responding to the fact that the Tbilisi Court of Appeal, due to the violation of the confidentiality of the vote , did not satisfy the request of GYLA regarding the annulment of the results of 1293 election precincts.

As Qurdovanidze notes, the court blamed the voter for not respecting the right to vote secrecy.

"The review of GYLA cases due to massive violation of the secrecy of the voice has been completed. On October 29, GYLA launched a legal dispute against all constituencies (73 constituencies) for mass violation of vote secrecy and demanded the annulment of the results of all technological districts. There are 2263 districts. Our case went through all the city/district courts in Georgia. There are a total of 24 such courts and both appeal courts.

Courts of appeals issued final decisions. The courts have said that what approximately 2,000,000 citizens know from their own experience did not actually happen. Although there were marks of the marker on the other side of the ballots (whatever was left), if the voter had been sufficiently dexterous, he could have covered the marks left on the other side of the ballot.

Despite this decision, this case has other implications:

Everyone knows for sure that the election administration failed to ensure the administration of the elections in such a way that the right to vote secrecy was protected. We can say with certainty that future elections will not be held with such a ballot and voting procedure.

This case fully exposed the vices of the judicial system. 2,000,000 citizens learned precisely that there is no court. The court accused the voter that the right to secrecy of the vote was not respected, it is the voter's fault. Such a court can not have public trust.

This case also showed us that the system can not be sure that regardless of the extent of control, citizens like the judge of the Tetritskaro district court will not appear and challenge it with bold decisions.

We ask ourselves:

Was the dispute justified by this strategy?

What did the voter get out of it?

Did they return the electoral right to the voter?

What will be the legal continuation of this case?

We can accurately say that we protected the interests of 90% of the voters, whose right to vote secrecy was violated. We think that the dispute in this case was our obligation. This fight will definitely have another sequel.

I also want to publicly thank the Saya team. All GYLA employees were involved in this case in different ways", Qurdovanidze wrote.

For information, the Tbilisi Court of Appeal did not satisfy the decisions of the first instance courts, which implied that the voter's secrecy was violated in the October 26 parliamentary elections. In particular, the court did not satisfy the lawsuits of the third sector, and canceled the decision made by the Tetritskaro court, which also implied a violation of the secrecy of the vote. The Court of Appeal rejected the lawsuits of the non-governmental organization "Young Lawyers Association" and the observation mission "My Voice" regarding the violation of vote secrecy.

The Court of Appeal considered the lawsuits of the Association of Young Lawyers of Georgia and "My Voice" on the mentioned issue for almost 24 hours.
