All sides claim victory in Georgia election as exit polls give different results

Supporters of the ruling Georgian Dream party celebrated at party headquarters after exit poll results were announced in parliamentary elections in Tbilisi, Georgia. The election results will determine if Georgia moves towards the West or leans back towards Russia amid the war in Ukraine. Exit polls showed conflicting projections, with the ruling party claiming victory in one poll and the opposition parties in two others. The ruling party, which has recently adopted pro-Russian rhetoric, expressed confidence in their success, while the opposition parties celebrated what they believed to be a majority win. The future direction of Georgia’s political landscape remains uncertain as final results are awaited.
