30. Amendments also include a more extensive use of video recording and real time transmission (as a simultaneous webcast) of election day proceedings in polling stations, as well as sessions of the constituency election commissions. The framing of the amendments emphasise the observance of the principle of secrecy of the vote during such recordings (Article 8 part 11.1). According to Article 71 part 8 persons having the right to be present at the precinct may photograph or videotape the protocol on the voting results drawn up in the electoral precinct, as well as request a copy. As previously noted by the Venice Commission and ODIHR, video recordings throughout the election-day proceedings, as long as they do not compromise the secrecy of the vote, might increase voters’ confidence in the credibility of the process.21 However, this should not substitute in-person observation.
