Recommendation """Regarding the management of the election appeals process""" (Electoral Integrity and Dispute Resolution) Cote d'Ivoire 2011
n/a
It is recommended that reasonable deadlines should be set for the transmission and announcement of results. These deadlines should be established in light of the CEI commitment to transparency and enable greater efficiency in the management of the results process. To support a more equitable election petition process, the deadline for filing any appeals should be extended beyond the official announcement of the provisional results. It would also be useful to consider the possibility of giving the electoral commission a mandate to examine appeals at first instance and, in all cases, to establish the conditions in which material errors may be rectified
