The government has no legitimacy. SDSM lost about 300,000 votes in two years with its fatal rule, injustice, crime and corruption. Zaev and Pendarovski hold the Republic of Macedonia back and the citizens punished it for that, VMRO-DPMNE’s secretary general Igor Janushev said Wednesday at a press conference adding:

Instead of empty words like SDSM, we will present figures and facts. SDSM is sinking and there is no salvation. The coalition led by SDSM in 2016 had 14 parties, in 2017 there were 24 parties, and now the number is over 30. But. While the number of parties grows, the number of votes drops sharply.

The SDSM-led coalition, which includes DUI, DPA, DOM, LDS, DP, VMRO NP, United for Macedonia, and another 20 other parties, won only 323,000 votes, which is a drop of nearly 200,000 votes for the same set of political parties that together in 2017 won over 523,000 votes. Citizens told NO to negative policies, crime, corruption and nepotism. Zaev and Pendarovski in just one year have dropped by about 200,000 votes. “

According to Janushev, the drop in the votes for the government is even greater if one looks at the results of the parliamentary elections in 2016, when the coalition that led the government won about 608,000 votes.
