Article 82
 

Management of polling sessions.



  • Voters shall cast their votes in the order in which they present themselves. A voter shall be alone in the polling booth, cf., however, Article 89. Nonetheless, the electoral commission may grant a voter accompanied by a child who cannot be left unattended an exemption from this condition, provided that not doing so would prevent the voter from casting a vote.

  • Electoral commissions may decide, notwithstanding Article 55, that persons other than voters intending to vote, apart from those employed in the conduct of the election, shall not be allowed in the polling room. Electoral commissions may also limit the number of voters in the polling room if deemed necessary in order to keep order.
