Consideration should be given to amendments to the LECR that would: - Provide adequate special legal procedures to protect electoral rights during the campaign period. The requirement to use general administrative procedures does not provide for a remedy in the timeframe necessary during an election; - Remove the right of candidates and political parties to receive copies of the voter register extracts from the polling stations; - Be brought in conformity with existing media laws; - Make public posting of all election results and protocols at PSs and MECs obligatory and require that the SEC publish partial preliminary results by polling station at regular intervals on election night; - Introduce more coherent transparency and accountability measures with regard to campaign financing.
