Paragraph 22
 

The amended Article 491 (7) changes the rules for approving sample ballots. The amended Code foresees that some sample ballots are approved by the CEC and some by the TEC. The OSCE/ODIHR and the Venice Commission have previously raised the issue of the TEC preparing the ballot design for the National Assembly single member constituency election. It would be a better practice if the CEC continued to approve sample ballots for all elections, especially for the National Assembly elections, including elections in the single member constituencies.
