When voting is completed, the voters' committee shall first count any ballots that remain unused and place them in a separate envelope that shall then be sealed.
The voters' committee shall then establish the total number of ballots cast from the records based on the voters' list or a confirmation issued by the competent body.
With Article 42 of the Act on Amendments to the Act on the Elections of Representatives to the Croatian Parliament (Official Gazette 19/15), which entered into force on 25 February 2015, paragraph 2 was amended.
Once the number of ballots cast is determined, the voters' committee shall open the ballot boxes and count the votes.
