Paragraph 45
 

3,000 voters are far too many for one polling station considering the number of staff provided for by law and at the same time could lead to overcrowded situations.  Experience also confirms this.  Checking voters’ lists and polling takes as much time as does the count itself.  Either the number should be considerably reduced (e.g. maximum 1,000 voters per polling stations) or arrangements made for more tables to check the voters’ lists and more booths.  It would be more advisable to allow between 100 to 2,000 voters.
