Ilirjan Celibashi

The Central Election Commission has criticized the country's municipalities for not respecting the legal deadlines regarding the May 11 elections.

In a Facebook response, Chief Commissioner Ilirjan Celibashi says that it is necessary for municipalities to take immediate measures to respect deadlines and legal requirements.

Celibashi says that monitoring conducted by the CEC has found delays in posting voter lists in some municipalities, as well as difficulties in accessing voters with disabilities.

Also, information on the appointment of VCs and notification of voters has not yet been reported.

The CEC also had a request for the Ministry of Interior, asking it to facilitate the voter notification process to ensure that this process is carried out within the legal deadlines.

Taking into account the obligations arising from the Electoral Code, regarding the publication of voter lists, written notification of voters and reporting on the location of voting centers (VCs), it is necessary for municipalities to take immediate measures to respect deadlines and legal requirements.

From the monitoring carried out by the CEC:

– Delays have been noted in the posting of voter lists in several municipalities.

– There are difficulties in accessing voters with disabilities.

– Information on the assignment of VCs and notification of voters has not yet been reported.

The voter notification process has not begun in most municipalities due to a lack of funds and a notification template, while the deadline for its completion is March 6, 2025.

To address the above-mentioned issues, the CEC requests municipalities to:

Complete the reporting of the location of voting centers within the deadlines set in the Electoral Code.

It also requests the Ministry of Interior to facilitate the voter notification process to ensure that this process is completed within the legal deadlines.
