Article 91
 

(1) For the voters who cannot be transported to the premises of the polling station due to an illness or disability, the president of the electoral bureau of the polling station may approve, upon their written request, accompanied by copies of documents att esting the respective medical condition or disability, that a team composed of at least 2 members of the electoral bureau should go with a special ballot box and the materials needed for voting – the ‘VOTED’ stamp and ballot papers – to the place where the voter is located, so that (s)he could vote. A single special ballot box shall be used within the jurisdiction of a polling station. Only the members of the electoral bureau of the polling station may carry the special ballot box, under escort by the staff of the Ministry of Interior.


(2) In the cases stipulated under paragraph (1), the voting shall take place based only on an excerpt drawn up by the president of the electoral bureau himself/herself from the permanent electoral list, the copy of the complementary electoral list or the additional list existing at that polling station. The excerpt shall be signed by the president and stamped, and the persons comprised in those excerpts shall be erased from the other lists existing at the polling station.


(3) Only those domiciled in the locality or in the sector of the Municipality of Bucharest where the polling station is located may vote in the manner stipulated under paragraphs (1) and (2). Citizens of the European Union must meet, as the case may be, the conditions stipulated under Article 21 paragraph (1), Article 23 paragraph (1) or Article 24 paragraphs (1) and (2).


(4) The personal identification numbers of the voters having filed applications under paragraph (1) are pre-recorded in the Computer system for monitoring turnout and preventing illegal voting, and they are finally registered upon the return, to the voting premises, of the team referred to in paragraph (1), based on the signatures in the excerpt referred to in paragraph (2).


(5) Before the team of members of the electoral bureau of the polling station heads with a special ballot box to the persons who cannot vote at the polling station according to law, the president of the electoral bureau of the polling station shall request the operator to verify whether or not those persons have already exercised their right to vote on that day.
