In BiH, more than 200,000 people with the right to vote, which does not have a personal card, nor a passport, or a driver’s license, has been confirmed for the Agency for the Agency for the identification documents, the records and exchange of data from Bosnia and Herzegovina.
In the light, the report calls in the Central Election Commissions of BiH these days to citizens in accordance with the Election Law, according to the Central Voter List, can be inspected in the temporary voter list, in the iddeea of the preliminary voting list of persons who do not have any valid documents.
From the agency, we submitted us accurate data on the number of these people on Friday, and stated that the number changes every day.
The number changes everyday
“In the phase of the ‘preliminary voter list’, it is possible to find persons who do not have a valid identification document (ID card). According to the current voting list, there are 207,949 people with no valid document. Please change this number every day, depending on the issuance of new documents or expiry of the validity of the existing ones.
It is important to emphasize that, although certain persons can be found at the preliminary voter list, the right to vote on the day of the election can be achieved exclusively with the presentation of the applicable identification document (Article 5.12) “, responded from IDDEEA for the report.
Although it is generally known that the law prescribes the vote in the election in the presentation of one of the three identification documents, a passport or a majority of citizens who appear in BiH, in years, awake that this phenomenon can be abused in the elections.
In previous years, data on the large number of citizens whose names are on the central electorate, and at the same time, they are recorded as persons without a single valid document, but that is not a steal of Ukrain.
It was never determined that is what is the period in which one is a person without a single valid document.
It is clear that people appear in the system without a valid ID card, and even perhaps a few months without a personal card, but there is no valid document for a longer period given that in many everyday administrative affairs or services must present some of the applicable documents.
Well, if for example, a personal card expired, a passport or driver’s license, as evidence of identity, is unlikely that a larger number of citizens or hundreds of thousands are extracted all three personal documents, so that they are all invalid.
Updated data deliver cikbih
From Iddeea, they reminded that according to the applicable regulations, the Central Election Commission of Bosnia and Herzegovina (CIK BiH) is responsible for the formation and updating of the Central Biracement, and that the data for the voter list is taken from the official records of the competent institutions, including data on applicable identification documents.
“Our agency regularly submits updated data on the status of BiH’s Central Election Commission, which is formed by the final voter list,” said from IDDEEA, noting that for more detailed information on the voter list in charge of CikbiH.
However, from the CEC, the conclusion of the Central Voting List for local elections last year expressed concerns that there were then about 160,000 people at CBS, without a valid document and that the ‘parameter would stay on the radar’.
But to date, this problem is not resolved, the number of people without a single valid document is also higher, and no one has an answer yet whether more than 200,000 people in BiH have some shorter period without a long-term problem and how to overcome it.
