“During their assessment, 9 thousand and 610 individualised envelopes with ballot papers have been approved, while 1,000 and 324 have been refused because they are not in line with legal criteria. More than half of them have been rejected after being sent by persons who have not applied for voter registration outside Kosovo (614) or sent by persons who have failed to register as voters (,200). There are even times when the ballot package was sent more than once by the same person (168)”, Elez said.
