This guy has a very sad life - he lives just for elections, and begins to campaign for the next election 5 yrs away immediately current results are announced.
Sad day for a leader of his calibre admitting in advance that he will not be keen/ judicious enough, not exercise any caution, nor establish any mechanisms/controls to mitigate the risk, if any, of theft of votes.
It portends - at best - paralysis of action, and at worst, an ulterior motive with tragic echoes in the past.
Either way - a critical lapse of judgment.
