Before every electoral threshold, there is a moral threshold



Before every electoral threshold, there is a moral threshold.


No one has the right to call a rule reform when it protects the strong from those who have not yet had a fair chance to be tested.


Electoral reform is not the property of any party.


It is a test of the Republic.


We are not speaking only about formulas, lists, coalitions, or percentages.


We are speaking about that moment before the vote, when it is decided who will reach the citizen and who will be kept from being heard by him.


In a country where media, money, the administration, patronage, and old names do not begin on equal footing with new voices, the threshold is not only a number.


It can become the place where the race is stopped before the citizen can judge it.


For this reason, in recent days I have sought direct conversation with political voices that have expressed concern about electoral reform, the electoral threshold, and the real conditions of the race.


Not for a political alliance.


Not for an electoral coalition.


Not for a blending of identities.


But for a democratic minimum, that the rules should not make entry into the race even harder for those who do not come from the old political order.


LRE Rinisja will hold this line with anyone who sees this as a question for the Republic.


And it will hold it without lowering this principle, even when others do not share it.


We are not asking for privilege.


We are asking for a fair and open race.


Because a reform that makes it harder for the new to enter does not open democracy.


It only teaches closure to speak more beautifully.
