Furthermore, the Venice Commission and ODIHR recommend:
Reconsidering the limitations of the right to vote and to stand for election;
Elaborating on or at a minimum making reference to the election processes held in the Autonomous Territorial Unit Gagauzia and describing the relevant election authorities there.
Defining more precisely which symbols or types of symbols are not permissible in the campaign in order to limit such restrictions to the utmost necessity of such limitations in a democratic society.
Reconsidering the prohibition for electoral contestants to organise various types of campaign events, such as concerts, competitions and other types of political promotion.
Reconsidering the number of interim expenditure reports by the electoral contestants before election day and the deadline for submission of the final report after the elections, to best serve the interests of transparency and accountability while not imposing burdensome requirements.
Reconsidering the possibility for list submitters to change the order on the list after registration;
Retaining the possibility that the ballot papers and the relevant voter information are produced in both Romanian and the languages spoken by national minorities.
Reviewing the eligibility requirements for standing for president, which are unreasonably restrictive by international standards and good international practice, including limitations based on education, language proficiency and length of residency, as well as the requirement for mayors to have completed general secondary education.
Reviewing the turnout requirements for various types of elections and referendums, including repeated voting and second round of elections where applicable.
