AMMAN — The timeframe for personal objections to the initial
voter tables for the Governorate Council, Municipal Council, and Amman Municipality Council elections expired on Tuesday, which allows the Independent Election Commission time to arrive at its decision on the objections to "third
parties" and the Civil Status and Passport Department to adjudicate
"personal" objections by January 3, 2022.
According to a member of the board of commissioners of the
Independent Election Commission Jihad Momani, the legal deadline for objections
to third parties expired on Saturday and totaled 1,553, whereas the number of personal
objections to voters’ tables expired on Tuesday and reached 1,430 by Monday.
Momani told Al-Ghad News, that making a decision on the
objections will continue for 10 days, whereby the results will be presented on
January 4.
The Independent Election Commission shall also present the
results relating to the applications and objections to "third parties"
through the presiding officers in places where they are publicly available, for
the subsequent commencement of the appeals phase.
Momani assured that
the commission was working to double-check voter records "annually"
for update purposes, while the law stipulates that those records should be
checked at least once a year.
Momani explained that
there are differences between election tables in parliamentary and local
administration elections pertaining to age and civil status, where reference is made to the
voter’s residence in the local administration elections under the civil status
data.
