Article 44
 

Meetings and Decisions of the LGEC



Meetings of the LGEC are public, except as provided in article 110 of this Code.



Decisions in an LGEC related to the registration of candidates, the revision and approval of preliminary voter lists, and the declaration of results and winners, are taken by two-thirds of the votes of all the LGEC members. Other decisions are adopted by majority vote with the presence of more than half of the LGEC members entitled to vote.



Decisions must necessarily be signed by the chairman and the deputy. 



Decisions are accompanied by the opinion of the minority. Each of the LGEC members beside his signature declares his vote “in favor” or  “against”.



In case the LGEC fails to reach a decision, the case is sent immediately for examination to the CEC, whose decision is implemented by the LGEC. The CEC decides in conformity with article 30, section 5 of this Code.
