Composition of the boards in special cases


If only two or fewer members are proposed when the cantonal boards are being constituted, the TSE shall complete them with the additional individuals required so that they shall comprise at least three members.


When a similar situation arises during the constitution of polling station committees, the same procedure shall be followed. The same procedure shall also be followed if the parties do not propose members for a polling station committee within the deadline stipulated in this Act.


The alliance or merger of two or more parties shall be considered to be a single party for the purpose of the corresponding proposal in Electoral Boards.
