Albania’s Conservative Prime Minister Sali Berisha(68) who is seeking a third term in office, speaks at a rally in Tirana, Thursday, June 13, 2013
Sali Berisha(Democratic Party of Albania)is facing a strong challenge from Socialist Edi Rama(48), whose campaign has concentrated on the enduring levels of poverty in the country, which has 3.3 million registered voters
Edi Rama(Socialist Party of Albania) held his main campaign rally on Thursday June 20,2013 addressing thousands of supporters in Tirana's central Mother Teresa Square. He accused Berisha of running the country with a corrupt elite who had "ruined the economy, society, democracy, and Albanians' European dream."
Rama is leading in most opinion polls, though surveys are not generally considered reliable in Albania
Both Sali Berisha and Edi Rama have run aggressive campaigns, with negative TV ads and daily party rallies around the country — leaving its cities and towns littered with blue Democrat and purple Socialist flags and pamphlets
The month long election contest has been relatively calm, unlike past elections that were frequently marred by violence
The Vienna, Austria-based Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe has sent a team of election monitors to Albania.
