Paragraph 27
 

Further to issues already mentioned, reference is made to the following paragraphs of the 2010 opinion (CDL-AD(2010)014):


 Par. 42 on restrictions on the right to campaign (Article 47.2).


 Par. 43 on the prohibition of foreign subsidising and its implications on international organisations (Article 36).


 Par. 44 on the prohibition against beginning the campaign until after a candidate has been officially registered (Article 47.3).


Par. 48 on the access to the polling station of those who queue at the time the polling station closes (Article 53.6).


 Par. 49 on mobile ballot boxes (Article 55.4): the opinion welcomed a positive step in the draft, but in the current Electoral Code, the regulation once again allows the voter to apply for mobile voting up to 15:00 on election day. Moreover, ballot papers in mobile ballot boxes should not be counted separately from other votes cast, as the number of votes given outside the polling station might be extremely low (see Article 56.4).
