The Central Electoral Board (JCE) has set out a series of regulations for Friday's Presidential Election. The board issued three decrees outlining their stance: one prohibits any gatherings that are not peaceful; another prohibits carrying firearms or other weapons and bans the sale of alcoholic beverages on Election Day until three hours after the polls close (until 9pm); and the final decree prohibits all political propaganda as of midnight tonight.
