In March, said the CEC head, Ella Pamfilova, the Commission was forced to suspend a number of preparatory activities that were tied to the previously announced date of April 22. For example, to stop taking applications for the “Mobile voters”. However, the work was not stopped even under the regime of self-isolation.
in addition, CEC has studied the experience of several countries, where in recent months passed the local or General elections. In conjunction with the CPS recommendations that will make voting as secure as possible. Many of the measures installed with a stock, for example, the distance between people at polling stations would not and a half, and two meters.
“In order to ensure the safety of all election Commission members and all observers will be provided with masks, the same applies to media representatives who come to the land,” – said Pamfilova. “We will provide masks, gloves, sanitizer, we will be issuing disposable masks, basualdo will be implemented by a contactless temperature control,” – said the CEC head.
If anyone from voting, the temperature will be elevated, he will be able to vote in a separate room, where to put a portable box.
Informing citizens the process will be to go as a contactless manner. For this reason, decided to abandon the house-to-crawl and voting by mail.

“it’s safe to say that a day of nationwide voting, in the days preceding, all the necessary requirements, all necessary arrangements will be made. We have focused on this, that no one had any doubt that a nationwide vote should be held so that no health risks were not” – said Pamfilova.
