II. Comments on the text of the draft law


D. Voter lists


Complying with a prior Venice Commission and OSCE/ODIHR recommendation, the authority of PECs to make changes, other than correcting technical errors, to the voter lists on election day has been removed. Any change or adjustment to the voter lists on election day that affects the right of a voter to vote must be made on the basis of a court judgment or by notification from the State Voter Register maintenance body. PECs may only correct inaccuracies related to misspelled names, errors in the date of birth, number of the building or apartment provided that it is obvious that the person on the list is the same one who has come to vote.
