Today the decision of the Supreme Court for the Spartans and their descent into the European elections

Today the decision of the Supreme Court is expected on whether the Spartans will participate in the European elections.

Specifically, today is expected the decision on which of the 46 combinations and parties that have submitted the relevant application will receive the green light to participate in the upcoming European elections.

The Spartans have filed a regular ballot, however, they are being scrutinized for the party’s ties to convicted criminal Ilias Kasidiaris. ND, PASOK and New Left had submitted memorandums in the previous days to the Supreme Court against the participation of the Spratiats emphasizing the relations with the imprisoned gold miner. ND noted in its memorandum that this is the natural leader of the party and requested the exclusion of the party from the European elections.

At the same time, there are expected to be developments soon from the Electoral Court, which will decide whether the Spartans should lose their seats in the Parliament, in case it judges that their natural leader is the one convicted of participating in a criminal organization and imprisoned in prison, Ilias Kassidiaris. A fact that will either lead to a proportional distribution of their seats to the other parties or to repeat elections in the regions that were elected.
