Regarding finalisation of election results, it should be noted that in a politically sensitive environment, unduly prolonging the final conclusion of the results could have serious repercussions. Political and public tensions may arise if the election contestants and electorate have to wait months to know the final outcome of the election. At its worst, and as seen in Georgia to some extent during the 2020 parliamentary elections, public protests can erupt and turn violent. In this respect, it is advisable to ensure that the final election results are determined once and for all within a maximum two months from the election day, taking into account all of the deadlines for determination of the summary protocols of results and resolution of complaints and appeals to the highest level. When legislating these various deadlines, it is recommended to take this concern into account.
