Electoral Disputes Agency(ies)


PreguntaWhat are the agency(ies) responsible for the first level of formal electoral disputes?
Respuestas a. Judiciary
Respuestas OSCE: Complaints related to the general administration of the election and voter registration are filed with DROs. Election day complaints can be filed with and considered by presiding officers at polling stations, and most of them are usually submitted by candidate agents. Lower-level election administration decisions can be appealed to the GRO and then to the Supreme Court, which serves as an electoral court during the electoral period and takes decisions on the validity of elections and considers complaints on candidate registration. The Supreme Court has exclusive jurisdiction to act as an electoral dispute body.
