1. The CEC, no later than 100 days before the election date, approves and provides the subjects specified in articles 68 and 69 of this Code with a template form for the collection of the supporting signatures for the candidates proposed by a group of voters or for the parties and coalitions.

2. Voters deposit their signatures in the form individually. The form shall contain the full identity of the voter, his/her birthday and phone number. In addition to signing, each voter shall submit a photocopy of a valid ID card, signed by him/her, which is attached to the list. Pursuant to article 69 of this Code, the voter shall be registered in the respective electoral zone.

3. The signatures for elections to the Assembly are verified by the CEC administration, and for elections for local government bodies are verified by the respective CEAZ, verifying 5 per cent of the list of supporters required by law, and whether the voters have their domicile in the respective electoral zone when they submit the signatures. Upon verification, the administration presents a detailed report on the identified irregularities. The report is reviewed in a public hearing where the interested party is present. The CEC decides to accept or reject the supporting list. The list shall be accepted when the number of supporting signatures, excluding the number of irregular signatures, equals at least the minimum number required according to this Code.
