Article 19 regulates the filling of CEC vacancies. Article 19(2) provides that vacancies are filled using the initial appointment procedures of Article 14. Article 19(2) has the following sentence: “Otherwise, the candidacies are proposed from the political party which meets the criteria of ranking and affiliation.” It is assumed that “otherwise” refers to possible changes in the ranking between political groups in Parliament and in MPs’ affiliations, however, this provision would benefit from more clarity.
