The provisions for a recall election require more detail and clarification in particular in the area of administration of recall elections. Inter alia, the law does not address the “extended” composition of election administration and election deadlines applicable to “recall” elections. Moreover, Article 13 of the Law on Presidential Elections permits recall of the President by a majority vote of the “total number of registered voters”. Article 13 should state the specific date and how the number of registered voters for the purpose of recall is determined. The OSCE/ODIHR and the Venice Commission recommend that the Law on Presidential Elections be amended to address these issues.
