Electoral roll books


1 – As soon as polling stations and sections have been defined and the members of the boards of officers have been appointed, the electoral registration commission must supply the latter, at their request, with two authenticated copies or photocopies of the electoral roll books.


2 – Where a polling station is divided up, the copies or photocopies shall only include those sheets in the books that correspond to the electors who are to vote in each polling section.


3 – The copies or photocopies provided for in the previous paragraphs must be obtained two days before the election at the latest.


4 – Delegates for lists may consult the copies or photocopies of the electoral roll books at any time.


5 – Dematerialised electoral roll books may be used as an alternative in polling stations and sections established abroad, provided that they meet the necessary technical conditions.
