Petition Created For Sandra Gauci To Be Given Seat In Parliament

Petition Created For Sandra Gauci To Be Given Seat In Parliament
Local

A petition has now been created in favour of getting Sandra Gauci a seat in parliament.

Many are arguing that the Gauci, the chairperson of ADPD, deserves to be a Member of Parliament following the strong number of votes she received during last Saturday’s election.

Under Malta’s current system, Gauci will not be given the position of MP as her party, ADPD, did not qualify.

Many are stating that this is not fair and goes against democracy, with one of the most notable critics being Arnold Cassola, leader of Momentum.

He slammed the bi-party system, stating that Sandra is deemed a “lesser woman” since she does not belong to either PN or PL.

The petition demands “that Parliament and the Electoral Commission end this injustice and reform the system immediately.”

“Respect the voters. Respect democracy. Give Sandra Gauci her seat,” petition creators concluded.

The number of signatures is steadily increasing, with almost 100 people already contributing to the petition.
