Even though Dr. Mohamed Munavvar President of Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP) competing in the party presidential primary has said he will not make use of any proxy votes, the other 2 candidates competing in the presidential primary has made it clear that will accept proxy votes.
The other 2 candidates competing in the primary, MP for Laamu Atoll Mr. Moosa Manik and former chairperson Mr. Mohamed Nasheed (Anni) has also said the voting by proxy is against the spirit of elections but that they would accept proxy votes.
Mr. Anni said that there were many party members abroad and that if the members want to vote by proxy then he would make use of it and that it was important to provide the opportunity and facilitate means where those members can vote.
Dr. Mohamed Munavvar at a campaign rally held at Kulhudhuhfushi last Friday night has said that he was not in favor of voting by proxy. Dr. Munavvar said the voting by proxy violates the principles of voting and is against the spirit of elections.
At the address given at Hdh Kulhudhuhfushi, Dr. Munavvar said he will not make use of any proxy votes despite other two candidates competing in the primary doing so. He said as the MDP reformists are people with high awareness on politics, their actions must confirm what they say. In this regard he said all members should come out and vote on their own free will.
