II. Comments on the text of the draft law


C. Election Commissions


Members who disagree with the decision of the commission have the right to file a written comment within two days of the meeting. The comment must be attached to the minutes. This is a positive step as it makes the records of meetings complete and will facilitate the review of commission decisions on appeal. Decisions of election commissions can be cancelled by higher level commissions or a court. Higher level commissions are specifically given the right to replace the lower level commission decision with their own.
