The Central Electoral Board (JCE) in the Dominican Republic has provisionally suspended an article of its polling regulations that previously prohibited the publication or broadcasting of electoral surveys outside of officially designated pre-campaign and campaign periods. The temporary suspension was enacted while a legal controversy surrounding the rule is being decided.
The decision has generated internal debate within the electoral body itself. Two of the five members of the JCE have publicly questioned the measure, maintaining that the Pleno should not have proceeded in this manner regarding the ban on polls.
