Malta’s two major political parties have adopted notably different strategies ahead of this election
The Labour Party is placing its focus squarely on Prime Minister Joseph Muscat, who has pitched the election as a choice between himself and Opposition leader Adrian Delia and who has repeatedly said that a vote for any PL candidate will also be a vote for him.
Meanwhile, the Nationalist Party is putting its candidates on the frontline of its election campaign, insisting that this should not be a presidential race between two leaders, but rather a choice between individual candidates and the EU political groups they will represent in Strasbourg.
