Voting for ELAM is not a solution

A vote for ELAM is not a protest vote, but rather a vote for a party with ties to the Greek neo-Nazi party, Golden Dawn. There is a close relationship between DISY and ELAM, with personnel transfers between the two parties. ELAM lacks substantial proposals for cultural preservation and regeneration. A vote for ELAM supports decline and does not offer solutions for the future. Traditional parties have also failed to provide viable options, allowing parties like ELAM to thrive.
