Paragraph 38
 

The Venice Commission has been requested to examine a law which further empowers the political parties from stifling political opinion or dissent within its own ranks by allowing them, at their absolute discretion, without any limitation, to remove from the party list a candidate with the potential to be legitimately elected by the voters, after election day and prior to such a candidate being so confirmed as elected by the Central electoral commission.
