Parties yet to Finalise MP Candidate Lists

Though the deadline to file MP candidate lists to the State Election Commission (SEC) expires on 2 April, SDSM is still not ruling out the possibility of a pre-election coalition with DUI.

SDSM leader Dimitar Kovacevski said on Wednesday talks with coalition partners were continuing. However, he didn’t clarify whether there were negotiations with DUI, too. SDSM will have list carriers in all six Electoral Districts. Kovacevski will head the party’s list in Electoral District 1. The other names still haven’t been defined.

VMRO-DPMNE too is carrying out its intra-party analyses. It is certain that party leader Hristijan Mickoski, too, will be the list carrier in Electoral District 1. The party still hasn’t defined how many current MPs of its will be part of the new list.
