Elections of the Municipality of Ayia Napa: The turnout is high

The departure of Giannis Karousos from the Municipality of Ayia Napa to the Ministry of Communications left the position of Mayor vacant. So today the 3.334 voters of the Municipality are called to choose between Emilia Xydia and Christos Zannettos. The alternate electoral process for the election of a new mayor in Ayia Napa is taking place with great turnout and smoothly from early in the morning.

In a statement, the former mayor Giannos Karousos wished good luck to the two candidates and recommended them unity from tomorrow Monday and also said that the new mayor receives an important project of 23 million that has already been done in Ayia Napa with various developments, but also projects of 25 million mature to become.

The polls opened from seven in the morning and will remain open until six in the afternoon, with a break from 12 to one at noon.

According to the Famagusta Prefect and Election Commissioner George Chrysafini, the result is expected to be announced just one hour after the polls close.

For the current process, there are 4 polling stations, all in the primary school of the city.

The independent candidate is expected to exercise his right to vote at around 10 am while the also independent Emilia Evangelou Xydia will vote one hour later, at 11:30 am.

As "F" mentioned in yesterday's post, the forecasts show a derby. Electoral balances based on the forces of the parties that support each candidate prescribe an ambiguous contest. From there, the peculiarities of the small local community of Ayia Napa will speak. These are expected to be the catalyst that will tilt the scales for the winner of today's election contest in the municipality for the election of the new mayor of Ayia Napa.
