The polls close at 8:00 p.m. (6:00 p.m. in mainland Spain) and the first official results based on electronic counts are expected to be published in a matter of hours. The final results will be announced on the morning of October 27 after the manual count has been carried out.
These elections are crucial for the direction of Georgia since the ruling Georgian Dream party hopes to revalidate its mandate and its rapprochement with Russia, while the opposition proposes returning to the path of integration into the EU.
