Assistant All polling stations must have a properly indicated election assistant, wearing distinctive marks or signs, nominated by the election committee who, at the request of a voter, will assist him or her in marking the ballot paper. A voter who wishes to use a member of the election committee as an assistant in marking the ballot paper has a right to do so if this does not delay the voting process. A person whose ability to make a mark in the ballot is essentially weakened may use the help of an assistant he or she has chosen in marking the ballot. A person who is a candidate in the election in question can not act as an election assistant or an assistant chosen by a voter. The assistant is obliged to dutifully carry out the voter’s orders and to maintain the confidentiality of the information he or she has gained in connection with the voting.
