Amendments to polling procedures should include regulation of the number of excess ballot papers issued to each polling station and recording of individual ballot box seal numbers. The ballot paper should contain a box next to each candidate’s symbol where voters should record their preferences. Reconciliation procedures after the close of polling should be strengthened, for example the number of names marked in the electoral roll should be reconciled with the number of ballot papers issued.
