SP has submitted for auditing comprehensive balance sheets of its collected and spent funds after the completion of the election process. The electoral finances of this political party consist in public and non-public funds and also in the electoral subject-s own funds.<p><\/p>\n<p>During the 2011 electoral campaign, SP has spent 136,498,265 Leks. Total collected funds amount to 108,916,106 Leks, and the balance sheet for the 2011 electoral campaign records an excess of expenses equal to 27,582,159 Leks or 20.2 % of the total expenses.
