Paragraph 32
 

It should be noted that two-day voting introduces additional complexity that must be taken into account, especially related to securing the election materials over longer periods. Given the considerations related to the integrity of the election materials and its effect on the public trust, it may be beneficial that the Code obliges the CEC to organise two-days voting only in exceptional circumstances. While two-day voting may provide an additional opportunity to vote, this approach should be considered in connection with the necessary additional safeguards, most notably concerning the secure storage of sensitive election material spanning over two days of voting and specifics of the vote counting procedure.
