Paragraph 29
 

For example, till 2009, Moldovan electoral legislation expressly provided that polling stations could be opened only within the diplomatic missions and consular offices of the Republic of Moldova; thus, around 33 polling stations were opened. Since this number was insufficient - it did not cover all voters and the polling stations were too far from their residence – for the 2014 parliamentary elections, 95 polling stations were established (38 polling stations within the premises of diplomatic and consular missions and 57 extraterritorial polling stations). Tunisia has established a number of polling stations which goes much beyond the diplomatic and consular missions (more than 100 in France only).
