(Tasks of the Electoral Commission)



  1. By the thirtieth day preceding the election day, the Electoral Commission referred to in Art. 6 shall:


-       Verify the list of candidates and any declaration of participation in a coalition;


-       Check the logos of lists and coalitions, rejecting those that are identical or that could easily be confused with other logos already submitted or with symbols of political forces to which those submitting the list do not belong. Moreover, it shall invite the delegates referred to in Art. 14, paragraph 4, to replace the rejected logos within 24 hours, under penalty of exclusion of the list or coalition of lists from the elections.


-       Remove from the lists the candidates for whom the declaration of acceptance and/or the documentation referred to in Art. 15, paragraph 3, is missing.


-       Eliminate the lists which are not signed by the required number of voters, or which violate the rules referred to in Art. 15, paragraph 1, or which do not meet the legal requirements for the submission.


-       Eliminate the coalitions which do not meet the requirements, allowing only individual lists that would have composed the coalition to participate.


-       Determine by drawing lots the numbering of lists and coalitions. The delegates of the lists, duly convened, shall have the right to monitor the draw.


-       Reduce the number of candidates down to the prescribed limit, by eliminating those beyond number sixty.


-       Immediately notify delegates in person of the irregularities detected and the decisions adopted through a judicial officer of the Single Court.
