Moldovans Protest Mayoral Vote Annulment
Thousands of people have protested against the nullification of mayoral election results in Moldova's capital, Chisinau. On June 24, protesters marched from the city hall to the Moldovan parliament. The June 3 municipal runoff was won by pro-Western candidate Andrei Nastase, but court rulings annulled the results, citing violations of the country's campaign laws by both candidates.
