Procedures for Calculating the Inaccuracies

1. In order to calculate the amount of inaccuracies in a precinct:

1) compare the number of ballots allocated to the Precinct Electoral Commission (A) with the number of cancelled ballots (C) and the sum (D) of the number of valid ballots (d1) and the number of invalid ballots (d2) in the ballot box. The difference (its absolute value) shall be noted as the amount of the first inaccuracy;

2) compare the number of signatures in the voter list (B) with the sum (D) of the number of valid and invalid ballots in the ballot box. If the sum (D) of the number of valid and invalid ballots in the ballot box is greater than the number of signatures in the voter list (B), then the difference shall be noted as the amount of the second inaccuracy. If the sum (D) of the number of valid and invalid ballots in the ballot box is smaller than or equal to the number of signatures in the voter list (B), then the amount of the second inaccuracy is 0;

3) compare the number of used ballot stubs (E) with the sum (D) of the number of valid and invalid ballots in the ballot box. The difference (its absolute value) shall be noted as the amount of the third inaccuracy;

3.1) compare the number of ballot envelopes of established specimen (F) in the ballot box with the sum (D) of the number of valid and invalid ballots in the ballot box. The difference (its absolute value) shall be noted as the amount of the fourth inaccuracy; add the amounts of inaccuracies mentioned in sub-paragraphs 1, 2, 3 and 3.1. of this paragraph. The sum of this number shall be considered the amount of inaccuracies in that precinct.

2. In the precinct, the amount of inaccuracies shall be calculated and registered by the electoral commission responsible for the summarization of voting results using the “Elections” software.
