Paragraph 76
 

Due to the 2014 amendments, improvements have been made concerning the right to submit complaints or appeals on the electoral process. Access to courts seems to be provided in a clearer manner: the Electoral Code provides clear and reasonable time-limits for submitting complaints before an election and for decision-making on such complaints. Also, according to the new Article 120 (1) 9, the possibility to “lodge complaints and alerts about irregularities
affecting the election process” is now extended to election agents, which is a positive development.
