Kosovo votes

At eight o'clock in the morning, the first Central Election Commission conference will be held, responsible for monitoring the election management, for announcing the opening of polling stations. Meanwhile, at the fifth conference on this commission, preliminary results of political subjects will be announced, following the closure of the ballot boxes at 7:00.

In past elections, voting rights have enjoyed 1,972,955 citizens, while 875,721 of them or 44.39% of citizens have exploited the democratic right to select the new Assembly.

According to the CEC's publication for election trains, “for contrasting regular voting, voter turnout, as a total, through irregular voting (offensive, post-sentee votes) has remained rough in the elections for the Kosovo Assembly”.

Unlike the regular vote, voting through post by the diaspora started on February 2nd, while the ballots were accepted by the CEC on February 12th. Meanwhile, 16 thousand-packs of votes from the diaspora in Kosovo were accepted yesterday for the February 14th elections.

The Commission for Elections, this time, for the first time, will hold the central elections alone due to lack of assistance from the O mission The SEU for monitoring the election process.

Due to the coronary pandemic, for the first time the European Union will not send its election monitoring team. However, embassy staff and ambassadors themselves have pledged to be observers of the election process, along with thousands of non-governmental Kosovo organisations.

The State Prosecutor has appointed 88 prosecutors, along with 40 officials from the prosecutorial system, who, together with the Kosovo Police, will oversee evident irregularities along the election process.

On the other hand, the Kosovo Judiciary Council has appointed 30 caretaker judges to respond to demands by the State Prosecutor.
