Article 100.2 of the Election Code permits a party or bloc, under some circumstances, to cancel the registration of a candidate. While the formulation of this provision was somewhat improved by 23 June 2006 amendment, it remains unclear from the translated text whether the candidate’s registration could be cancelled after he/she is elected. If possible, this would contradict both the Constitution of Georgia[13] and OSCE Commitments.[14] The original official text of the law published in accordance with legal procedures should be checked to verify whether this concern arises due to translation.
