Article 24
 

Once the time limit set for declaring candidacy has expired the presiding election board shall meet on the following day, giving the agents for candidate lists the opportunity to be present at the meeting. If defects are discovered in candidate lists the agents concerned shall be given the opportunity to rectify the defects and may be given a time limit in which to do so to the extent that time and circumstances permit. Should the defects pointed out by the presiding election board not be rectified within the prescribed time limit, the board shall issue a ruling as to whether the list shall be declared invalid as a result. Should the members of the presiding election board disagree on the ruling the majority of votes shall decide the question.
