The first recommendation from the OSCE/ODIHR Final Report on the 2009 parliamentary elections should be considered an immediate priority: Parties should demonstrate the political will for the conduct of democratic elections commensurate with the broad privileges they enjoy under the law in regard to the conduct of elections. They should discharge their electoral duties in a responsible manner for the general interest of Albania. This extends to the performance of election commissioners and elected and appointed officials at all levels, who should refrain from basing election-related actions and decisions on political considerations.

The Electoral College should act within its jurisdiction, and compel the CEC to adopt required decisions. Any CEC decision with a discretionary component should be referred back to the CEC with an order to take a (new) decision. In the event that the CEC is ultimately not able to adopt such decisions, alternative mechanisms to address such impasses could be explored through an inclusive process.

Consideration should be given to establishing a more effective legal process for resolution of disputes against results, with a first instance court review and a right to judicial appeal. The CEC should examine in substance all relevant evidence in adjudicating post-election day complaints. The CEC could better inform electoral subjects of the legal process and of the technical requirements to resolve results-related disputes.
