Council of Ministers approves Election Law changes
The Council of Ministers approved amendments to the Independent Election Commission Law of 2026, aimed at updating the provisions to enhance the Commission's ability to perform its tasks more efficiently and transparently. The amendments include specifying election dates, regulating procedures for canceling or postponing voting processes under circumstances that affect their integrity, and updating the Commission's responsibilities in accordance with the Political Parties Law. Digital election campaign methods have also been incorporated into oversight powers, along with restrictions on employees' affiliation with political parties. Additionally, a requirement was set for employees intending to run for office to take unpaid leave at least 90 days before the elections; if elected, they are considered resigned. The purpose of these amendments is to promote neutrality, ensure the integrity of elections, and improve the administrative performance of the Commission.
