JCE initiates sanctioning process against polling firm ACD Media

The Central Electoral Board (Junta Central Electoral, or JCE) of the Dominican Republic has initiated an administrative sanctioning procedure against the polling firm ACD Media, S.R.L. The regulatory action involves the formulation of an initial statement of charges addressing the alleged publication and dissemination of electoral surveys outside of the legally established timeframe.

This legal and administrative step underscores the JCE's enforcement of regulations governing the dissemination of electoral information and polling data. The proceeding focuses specifically on whether the firm complied with the designated calendar for releasing election-related surveys to the public.
