Under the adopted law, independent candidates may stand only in single-member constituencies, based on the definition of “Electoral candidate” in Article 1 first indent. This restriction should be reconsidered. Independent candidates’ chances to be elected in singlemember constituencies are not equal to a possible chance to be elected in the nationwide constituency, as in single-member constituency the candidate has to receive more votes than any other candidate. Thus, an independent candidate who could receive 15% of votes in all regions, might not win a seat in any single-member constituency. The Code should provide a possibility for the nomination of independent candidates in the nationwide constituency.
