III. DISCUSSION OF THE DRAFT NATIONAL ELECTIONS LAW AND THE DRAFT ELECTION COMMISSIONS LAW


S. Voting procedures


The draft national elections law does not state how many voters should be assigned to a polling station. Article 11(2) of the draft local elections law provides that the number of voters in a polling station should not exceed 1,500. The Venice Commission and OSCE/ODIHR recommend that a similar limit on the number of voters for a polling station be included in the draft national elections law.
