Presentation of elections holding electronically

16:08, 18.05.2021

Presentation on holding elections with electronic technologies is ongoing at the Courtyard by Marriott Hotel in Tbilisi.

The electoral reform will be submitted to the Venice Commission, an advisory board of the Council of Europe, for recommendations and feedback by the end of this week.

The political parties disagree over newly staffing of the Central Election Commission (CEC) fully.

One part of the opposition demands to elect the acting election administration. The Georgian Dream party disagrees. The ruling team claims that there is no such point in the EU-brokered April 19 compromise agreement.

The parliament will begin to discuss the electoral reform from May 24. Its approval with three readings is expected for June 21.
