Delimitation of constituencies
Question:Are constituencies delimited for election purposes?
Answer: b. No, existing regional/provincial/other boundaries are used
Comments: The Elecotral Code: Art. 27: 1. Electoral Administration Zones (EAZ) are established and function in accordance with this Code for every kind of election and referendum. 2. The territorial jurisdiction of an EAZ, as a rule, is the same as the administrative territory of the municipality according to the law regulating the administrative-territorial organization in the Republic of Albania. Municipalities that have more than 80 thousand citizens with the right to vote shall be divided by the CEC into more than one Electoral Administration Zone based on the following criteria: a) the inseparability of the territory of the administrative unit, except for those with more than 80 thousand voters; b) the contiguity and compactness of the territory, while avoiding the geographical barriers; c) good possibilities for transportation within the territory; รง) approximate number of voters.
