Ruling Party Nominee Wins Run-off Elections in Tchiatura

As anticipated, Iason Chumburidze of the ruling National Movement-Democrats coalition won run-off elections in the Tchiatura single-mandate constituency on April 9.


Thus, 18 MPs out of 75 elected in the single-mandate constituencies (‘majoritarian’ MPs) are the members of the ruling party; the Rightist Opposition coalition has 8 MPs (4 from the New Rights; 4 from Industrialists); the opposition Labor Party – 4 and Adjarian leader Aslan Abashidze-backed Revival Union – 6. 

19 of these ‘majoritarian’ deputies were endorsed by then-ruling ex-President Shevardnadze’s party. 20 ‘majoritarian’ MPs were non-partisan, independent candidates.


The Supreme Court of Georgia annulled results of the proportional component of the fraudulent November 2 parliamentary elections. As a result, elections were re-run on March 28. MPs elected in the single-mandate constituencies on November 2 kept their seats.
