The Central Election Commission (CEC) proposes to regulate the procedure for including military personnel who are performing tasks in places where units are temporarily stationed in the voter lists, upon the recommendation of commanders on election day.
“It is envisaged that voting will be organized at the place of residence for military personnel who are included in the voter list of a special polling station but who are performing official duties on election day and are unable to come to the polling station,” according to a statement on the website on Wednesday.
It is also proposed to improve the legal regulation of voting by military personnel who are on duty or on standby, and other related issues. In addition, the commission emphasizes the need for a broad and professional study of the issue of ensuring passive voting rights for military personnel.
