The Central Electoral Board (JCE) passed a resolution yesterday that will allow votes to be counted faster in tomorrow's Congressional and Municipal elections. The measure will accelerate the confirmation of the calculations and the publication of the results. All political parties were in agreement with the procedures. Time constraints were placed on the different "confirmation tables" for reporting the results to the local election boards. In places with more than 100 polling stations, 36 stations will be validated at one time and then the different political delegates will have just 30 minutes to dispute any of those results. In smaller districts, the delegates will have 15 minutes to dispute a result. JCE officially opened its press office at 11:30 this morning. The JCE also announced that no cell phones or electronic equipment of any type will be allowed inside polling stations.
