This is evidenced by the data of the CEC after counting votes from 41.61% of polling stations in the capital, Trend reports with reference to the Georgian media.
According to the data, Kaladze is gaining 45.5% of the vote. Opposition candidate Nika Melia has 34.13%. Ex-premier Georgi Gakharia is third, with 8.97% of the vote.
A runoff will be held if none of the candidates manages to cross the 50% threshold.
