Protesters Rally in Front of CEC

Around 5-6 thousand protesters gathered late on November 5 in front of the Central Election Commission (CEC).

“I will not let anyone to rig our votes,” Mikheil Saakashvili, the Chairman of Tbilisi City Council and the leader of National Movement opposition party said, while addressing crowd in front of the CEC.
