Two opposition coalitions organized a rally in the southwestern Georgian city of Batumi on November 12 to demand new elections. The coalitions Strong Georgia and the United National Movement said the rally’s slogan was "Artfully faked.” Participants held posters with phrases such as "Give me back my vote." The rally gathered near the building of the 79th District Election Commission and participants marched to the building of the Higher Election Commission. Police blocked a street along the way. Georgians have held several protests to voice their anger over the October 26 elections and call for a new vote amid allegations that Russia helped the ruling party, Georgian Dream, rig the vote.
