ZAGREB, 5 May, 2021 - The Official Gazette's printing office in Zagreb started printing 13.7 million ballot slips for the coming local election on May 16 and this project costs about HRK 4.5 million.
There are 1,232 different voting slips that need to be printed for the election of county prefects, mayors, county and city assemblies.
In addition to ballot slips, forms to take minutes and procedures by election committees also need to be prepared including ballot boxes and cardboard screens for ballot booths.
The State Electoral Commission (DIP) is expected to release instructions on Friday regarding epidemiological measures during the election.
Anti-epidemic rules could be more stringent in comparison to last year's parliamentary election and masks will probably be compulsory at polling stations as will keeping a distance of at least 2 metres.
