COLOMBO Nike Air Force 1 Mid Clearance , Dec. 21 (Xinhua) -- Sri Lanka's election monitors have warned attempts are afoot to illegally cast votes for 100,000 migrant workers at the upcoming presidential elections, an official said on Sunday.


The Campaign for Free and Fair Elections (CaFFE) along with other polls monitors have warned Elections Commissioner Mahinda Deshapriya of covert moves to impersonate Sri Lankans working overseas.


"We are treating this matter seriously. CaFFE and other polls monitors together with representatives from opposition parties met Deshapriya to discuss the matter at length and urged his office to take appropriate action," CaFFE spokesperson Keerthi Tennakoon told reporters.


He said the Sri Lanka Bureau of Foreign Employment (SLBFE) had provided the names of more than 100 Nike Air Force 1 Low Clearance ,000 expatriate workers to a particular presidential candidate, a claim denied by SLFEB.


Election monitors want officials to inspect the passport of anyone claiming to be a migrant worker voting in Jan. 8 elections.


Early reports indicate a National Identity Card is still deemed sufficient and only a passport needs be produced if officials at the polling station are suspicious.


Election law violations and possible malpractices have dominated Sri Lanka's presidential elections for weeks as analysts predict a closely fought race.


Incumbent President Mahinda Rajapaksa called for early elections in late November seeking an unprecedented third term in power.


His former Health Minister Maithripala Sirisena unexpectedly went from being his ally to main rival when he crossed over to the opposition, galvanizing the race.


The Opposition has also concentrated on winning the support of Sri Lanka's influential migrant worker community by signing up to support of All Island Middle East Employees Organization who has assured the support of 149,000 families for Sirisena.


Remittances form the backbone of Sri Lanka's foreign exchange earnings with 6 billion U.S. dollars expected this year. An estimated 3 million people work abroad Nike Air Force 1 Mens Clearance , with more than half of them employed in the Middle East.

ROME, Jan. 29 (Xinhua) -- Italian parliament gathered in joint session of both Houses on Thursday for the first round of voting to elect the new president, after 89-year-old Giorgio Napolitano resigned on January 14th.


The election process of the next head of State, whose figure may have a major influence on Italy's politics and reform path in future months Nike Air Force 1 Womens Clearance , was being followed attentively by both media and people.


Prime Minister Matteo Renzi advanced the name of Sicilian judge Sergio Mattarella, member of the Constitutional Court since 2011 and former minister in several governments.


Renzi's centre-left Democratic Party (PD) fully supported his candidature, on which minor leftist and centrist forces also seemed to agree.


The name of Mattarella, who entered politics as a Christian Democratic in the 1980s after his brother was killed by the Sicilian mafia Nike Air Force 1 Clearance Online , was however not welcomed by Silvio Berlusconi's centre-right Forza Italia (FI) party and main opposition force in parliament.


Mattarella had in fact resigned as education minister in the 1990s to protest against a government's provision that helped Berlusconi's TV empire to develop.


Thursday's first round of balloting was not really expected to be crucial, considering the lack of agreement between major parties. Yet, it was watched with keen interest in the country.


Besides TV outlets, all major Italian newspapers extensively followed the event with live coverage. Some people gathered outside parliament despite an unusual day of bitter rain to watch 1 Nike Air Force 1 Shoes Clearance ,009 lawmakers and regional representatives entering the Lower House to join in the vote.


"I came specifically for this," Antonio Roberti told Xinhua, while taking shelter under a portico opposite the parliament and government buildings.


The man came from a village in Southern Italy where another presidential candidate was born.


Honorary president of Italy's Supreme Court Ferdinando Imposimato was in fact promoted by anti-establishment Five Star Movement (M5S) after a poll on social media among activists.


Imposimato was the kind of man Roberti would like to see at the Quirinale presidential palace.


"I am happy M5S has chosen him. I had the chance to know him, and I have seen he is a balanced Cheap Nike Air Force 1 Clearance , honest, and consistent man," Roberti said.


His hopes for judge Imposimato really winning the presidential race were not high, given that his candidacy was not shared by other major parties. Yet Nike Air Force 1 Clearance Outlet , Roberti knew what president he would want.


"A 'super partes' one, not an arbitrator within politics but a guarantor for country and citizens."


Francesca Barbieri from Rome expressed quite an opposite position. She said she was not around the parliament to follow the voting and not even well informed about it. Yet, she also had a clear mind.


"I want the next president to be a decent person, and an experienced one Nike Air Force 1 Clearance Sale ," she said.


"I don't want the head of State to be partisan of course, but I would like he or she to play a role in the country's major political choices".


The distinction was not at all meaningless.


Italy's president traditionally plays a ceremonial and balancing role in politics, but becomes a key player in times of broad instability and can use his impartial status to help solving major deadlocks, selecting the prime minister and forming cabinets.


More than 500 blank ballots were cast on Thursday and the first vote ended with no result Nike Air Force 1 Clearance , as most of media and analysts had expected.


A broad two-third majority is in fact required to elect Italy's president in the first three rounds of voting. From the fourth round, which would likely take place on Saturday, a simple majority will suffice.
