ECP clarifies mandate for votes to be valid
The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) simplified on Monday as to what would count as a current or an shabby opinion when a nation goes to polls on Jul 25.
As per a electoral body, a list paper will be shabby if:
– It’s blank a central formula pitch or partner presiding officer’s signature
– It’s blank ECP’s watermark
– It’s blank a central nine-matrix seal
– It has a paper or anything else trustworthy to it
– It has stamps on some-more than one candidate’s choosing symbols
– The stamp appears equally in some-more than one candidates’ boxes
However, ECP explained a list paper will be counted as a current opinion if a stamp appears in mixed boxes though a distinguished apportionment of it is in a sold candidate’s box.
Multiple stamps on a pitch of a sold candidate, as good as stamps on both a pitch and a name of a claimant will also be counted as a current vote, a ECP serve clarified.
Polling will start during 8am and interpretation during 6pm — a sum of 10 hours uninterrupted.
This is a initial time a polling generation has been extended by an hour opposite a house in a country’s electoral history.
