  • [01] ELECTIONS MEASURES VOTING -SECRECY

    The Chief Returning Officer for the presidential elections has announced that all measures are being taken to secure the secrecy of voting, in order to carry out objective elections, and that the administrative and legislative arrangements are such that guarantee total secrecy.

    Voters will be requested to enter the booths provided in order to vote, and can be sure that the้r identity or their vote cannot be determined after voting by any other person. The Chief Returning Officer notes that ballots are printed on white security paper and are identical for the whole of Cyprus. Polling stations will open at 07:00 local time and will close at 17:00, with a one-hour break at 12:00. The head of each station will be able to extend voting time until 21:00, if there are queues waiting to vote.

    Blue or black ink biros will be available in the booths and any other colour ink used will render the ballot void. Furthermore, special arrangements have been made for blind individuals or handicapped persons. Those who are not in a position to vote alone may request the help of the staff at the polling station or may name a person to vote on their behalf.
