Edi Rama and Sali Berisha will fly to northern Italy today to convince immigrants to vote for them. Both will be based in the north, about 100 km apart, a distance that can be reached in 1 hour by car.
Both the Socialist leader and the Democrat leader have their rallies very close in time. Edi Rama will meet his supporters first, in Milan, at 3:00 PM, while an hour later, at 4:00 PM, Berisha's supporters will gather in Brescia.
The first election packages will arrive by mail initially in the two closest neighboring countries.
Practically, early votes from the diaspora, who are voting by mail for the first time, will be completed from April 15 to May 5.
Nearly 90,000 voters from abroad have been registered in Italy, while the total number of people to whom the ballot paper is sent abroad is 245,953.
