Edi Rama's party is leading Albania's elections, with preliminary results indicating his return for a fourth term. His Socialist party has captured 53% of the vote, significantly ahead of the Democratic party, which secured 34%. Despite a lower voter turnout than previous years, Ramaâs campaign is built on the promise of reforms to expedite Albania's EU accession, a goal that some European leaders support as a response to regional security concerns. His main opponent, Sali Berisha, expressed doubts about Albania's readiness for EU membership.
Edi Rama's leadership since 2013 has focused on EU accession, with his campaign emphasizing rapid reforms deemed critical for this process, promising membership within five years.
Rama's unprecedented fourth electoral victory reflects significant popular support, with preliminary results showing a substantial lead over the Democratic party, suggesting a shift in public sentiment.
