Black Paint Thrown At Georgia Election Commission Official Over Controversial Polls
The head of Georgia's Central Electoral Commission was doused with black paint Saturday at a meeting to confirm the results of the country's divisive October 26 parliamentary elections. Protesters gathered outside the commission's building in Tbilisi, where officials announced that the ruling Georgian Dream party had won 53.93% of the vote. Opposition supporters have rejected the results amid allegations that the vote was rigged, an accusation that Georgian Dream denies.
