Political parties and candidates for MPs on May 11 spent over $1 million in total on sponsoring their Facebook posts.

Public data from Facebook shows that this amount was spent from April 7 to May 6, while the figure may increase until the end of the electoral process in Albania.

According to this data, the party that has sponsored its posts the most on Facebook is the Democratic Party with 23 thousand dollars, followed by the Opportunity Party and Agron Shehaj with almost 20 thousand dollars.

The Party for Justice, Integration and Unity follows the list of biggest spenders with $11,000 spent in 30 days.

Among the young candidates, the list is headed by Belind Këllicci and Grigel Muccollari, with over $8,000 each in sponsorships on Facebook. The CEC has not escaped sponsorship either, having promoted spots on how to vote on May 11 with almost $2,500.

The figures only include expenses for sponsorships on Facebook, while it could be twice as high if sponsorships of posts on other social platforms are also included.
