Baghdad/Al-Masala Al-Hadath: The Independent High Electoral Commission announced the completion of all preparations to hold the local elections on time, and while it confirmed that the details of the security plan had been fully determined and drawn up, it pointed out that there was a large demand from civil society organizations to monitor the electoral process.
The head of the media team at the Commission, Imad Jamil, said that the Commission is working to hold the governorate council elections on the scheduled date on the eighteenth of December of the current year and the special vote on the sixteenth of this month, and all preparations for this purpose have been completed, including training employees and cadres, in addition to completing Technical and logistical preparations and equipment for polling centers, as well as training of employees on the cameras that will monitor the electoral process.
He added that there is a great demand for monitoring the elections by civil society organizations as well as bloc observers, pointing out that some of the governorate offices of the Commission have exhausted their monitoring packages, which confirms the high demand.
He stated that the security plan has also been finalized to secure the electoral centers, which will be subject to three security cordons.
He pointed out that the decision to postpone the elections or not is up to the government and the House of Representatives, and in return, all preparations have been completed to hold them on the specified date.
