By means of its Articles 5 and 6, Law No. 7393 has changed the rules contained in Law No. 298, pertaining to the establishment of provincial and district-level electoral boards that supervise the administration of voting. In compliance with Article 67 of the Constitution, stipulating that “elections (.…) shall be held under the direction and supervision of the judiciary” (para. 2), the boards have always included judges. Prior to the amendments, the three most senior judges in the province were automatically appointed as members of provincial boards, whereas the most senior judge in a district was automatically appointed the chair of the respective district-level board.
