Initially, the entire process for the selection of the president must be completely at the service of the public. It is a process that takes place inside the parliament, but it must serve the people. I suggest having the process roll out on that date. The Constitution says it must begin at least on May 24\u201d, Alibeaj said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe time distance from one round to another should be at least 7 days, which means it can be shorter than that. I would like to make a proposal in order to abide by the Constitution. All rounds must have a time distance of 7 days\u201d, he added.<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, Parliament Speaker Lindita Nikolla convened a conference with the chairs of the parliamentary committees to set out the date for the selection of the new head of state.<\/p>\n<p>The Socialist Party proposed May 10 for the first round of voting, but if any of the candidates fail to receive 84 votes, a second-round will take place no later than 7 days after.<\/p>\n<p>Parties can vote on a name that they both agree to until a third round, or else the ruling majority has the right to pass the candidate it wants with 71 votes in favor.<\/p>\n<p>The entire procedure is expected to conclude within this month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The acting leader of the Democratic Party declared on Wednesday that he disagrees with holding the first round of the presidential election on May 10, a move that goes against the recommendation of the ruling majority.
