Court rejects TS-LKD complaint against Tubis’ return to Anykščiai mayoral election

The Supreme Administrative Court of Lithuania on Thursday rejected the complaint of the Homeland Union-Lithuanian Christian Democrats (TS-LDK) against the Central Electoral Commission’s (VRK) decision to bring back Kęstutis Tubis of the Lithuanian Farmers and Greens to Anykščiai mayoral race.

The panel of judges of the Supreme Administrative Court concluded that the decision of the VRK, which restored the rights of candidate Tubis exercising the passive electoral right (to be elected) and the rights of the voters who had voted for him, was lawful.
