Municipal elections were a safe / day

She pointed out that security experts and services confirmed their members.

The Head of Government recalled that the Central Election Commission (CVK) was not eligible for the truth during the previous vote on an external attack on the electoral system.

« Security was not disturbed and there was no external influence. It is very important, » the prime minister said.

According to Silina, there were no tasks at the height of the CEC during the elections. She also pointed out that no one knew at the political level that some technical stigma could be experienced during the elections. This is the responsibility of the CEC and the State Digital Development Agency (VDAA), the Prime Minister emphasized.

Speaking about the overall security situation related to the elections, the prime minister highlighted that the choice of Daugavpils residents should be respected. In this election in Daugavpils, the former mayor Andrejs Elksniņa (« Sarauj, Latgale! ») Won with a convincing majority.

Siliņa believes that in this case, as a head of government, but especially as the party leader, it should rather draw conclusions as to why other parties have failed to convince Daugavpils residents.

At the same time, she stressed that a security report was regularly heard, and they can regularly see cases of various hybrid threats. « And Latvia is quite highly prepared to respond to these risks, » said Silina.

As reported, counting votes in the 2025 local elections on Saturday and night on Sunday faced technical problems. There were also problems in the polling stations during the week when the previous vote was held.

CVK was also accused of poor communication with both the public and the polling stations. Among them, in one of the previous voting days, the CEC announced that the system had an external attack, but it turned out to be not true. On the election night, when the technical stigma was experienced and it was not possible to carry out the counting of votes in the electoral system, there was no information on what to do next for a long time.

The President has previously stated that the CEC and VDA crashed in the organization of the elections, so the responsibility of the officials should be assessed.

Inga Berzina (JV), the Minister of Supervisory Administration and Regional Development of VDAA, dismissed Joren Liop, Director of VDAA in connection with the elections in the election, but resigned. Kristīne Saulīte, Head of the CEC, also resigned.
