Election campaign continues in Belarus

22 августа 2016

The election campaign continues in Belarus. To date, local authorities and electoral commissions have received more than three hundred inquiries from citizens.

Most often, Belarusians are interested in the activities of territorial, district and precinct election commissions. Many queries are related to the activity of the action teams. Approximately every 5th inquiry is devoted to nomination and registration of candidates, and the election campaign. Voters are also interested in the issues of accreditation of observers, as well as the nuances of the electoral legislation. Meanwhile, about 20 candidates have abandoned the race, according to the Central Election Commission. Currently, more than 500 people claim 110 seats in Parliament. The elections to the House of Representatives of the National Assembly of Belarus will take place on 11 September.
