All 31 regional election commissions have handed the election papers and tally sheets from the polling stations over to the Central Election Commission.

A second verification is underway of the data from the voting in order to eliminate any possible discrepancies resulting from the data entry. After being processed for the second time, the final election results will be announced, along with the distribution of the seats among the 6 political formations which enter parliament.

The final election results, published last night, will be slightly corrected when 100% of precinct protocols are processed in the District Election Commissions. The reason is omitted data from 11 polling station commissions abroad. Turnout figures will be corrected as well.

The official results should be announced no later than the evening of 6 April, and the names of the MPs who enter the 49th National Assembly should be announced by Sunday.
