Patras mayor, elected for third term, celebrates victory ‘against the system’
[Intime News]
Kostas Peletidis was elected to a third term as mayor of Patras by 56.70% of voters and 98.55% of all votes counted nationally in Sunday’s runoff local government elections.
Peletidis, who is supported by the Communist Party, said that Patras residents “defended their victories, the future of our children, and our city.”
“The huge effort by the beneficiaries of the system and mechanisms of the government to get rid of ‘Laiki Sispirosi’ did not succeed,” he charged. “We can and must push obstacles aside. Whatever we lose is won by the few. The fighting demand of our rights from every government will continue,” he added.
