“We have provided the management of the NB and the staff of the Office with detailed information about the voting technologies that will be used in the October 26 elections. It is worth noting that the meeting occurred amid active discussions. Numerous questions were posed and participants received comprehensive responses to their questions. In addition to theoretical insight, participants had an opportunity to test technological devices”, - said the CEC Chair.
“We listened with great interest to the presentation delivered by the CEC’s team. Significant work has been completed, completely renewing the electoral process with new technologies. I believe it is relatively simple and conveniently set up. Furthermore, dedicated personnel will ensure every voter receives proper attention at the polling station, facilitating the execution of their civic duties”, - added Natia Turnava.
Voter awareness and education about technological updates are key priorities for the election administration. Electronic technologies are being gradually showcased in crowded places, both in public and private institutions, nationwide. Currently, approximately 500,000 individuals have been informed.
Notably, as part of the large-scale information campaign, nationwide demonstrations of voting technologies have been underway since July 6th. Within the framework of the new project, voters had an opportunity to familiarize themselves with the operability of verification and vote-counting devices at meetings held every weekend at the preliminarily defined 89 locations of 64 municipalities throughout Georgia.
