Rerun in constituency no. 1[]

The first round of the election in constituency no. 1 was declared invalid because the turnout had failed to surpass the threshold of 25%.[1] On 19 March the Central Election Commission announced that the rerun would be held on 6 May.[2] The rerun was won with 1932 out of 3413 votes (56.61%) by businessman Beslan Eshba, who had not participated in the original election.[3][4] On 10 May, Eshba was registered as deputy by the Central Election Commission.[5]

In the recount, 46 more ballots were found to be invalid, causing Ashuba's vote share to fall below 50% and making a second round run-off between Ashuba and Kvarchia necessary. Ashuba then issued a complaint with the Central Election Commission as his observers had not been present during the recount. The Central Election Commission agreed with the complaint and requested the precinct and constituency election commissions to uphold the original count. When the local election commission refused to comply, the Central Election Commission brought the matter to the Supreme Court.[6][7]
