Preparations for the CoR elections 2010
Operational preparations for the Council of
Representatives Elections to be held on 7 March 2010
are on track.
On 19 January 2010 the Independent High Electoral
Commission (IHEC) started the printing of ballots
for the upcoming parliamentary elections. Overall,
more than 26 million ballots of 19 different types
will be printed and distributed to approximately
50,000 polling stations which will be established by
the IHEC to accommodate regular voting, special
needs and absentee voting (police, military,
detainees and hospitals), as well as out-of-country
voting.
UNAMI advisers continue to provide assistance and
technical support to the IHEC in preparations for
the Council of Representatives Elections.
