(January 8, 2018)

In the framework of the campaign “Human Rights Defenders for Free Elections”, the Belarusian Helsinki Committee and the Human Rights Center “Viasna” have published a number of reports around the Belarusian local elections, to be held on February 18, 2018.

The precinct election commissions (hereinafter —PECs) are the key actor of the election process. It is the PECs that directly organize and conduct early voting, voting on Election Day, and home voting, counting of the votes and tabulation at the polling stations. As in the previous local elections, one of the essential legally – enshrined obstacles to the nomination of representatives of political parties and public associations to the PECs is a requirement to possess registered local branches.
