World1 source1 country🔦 Under-reported27m ago
The Central Electoral Board (JCE) of the Dominican Republic has provisionally suspended a regulation that restricted the publication and dissemination of electoral polls outside of official pre-campaign and campaign periods. This administrative action was taken while the underlying legal controversy regarding the restriction remains under judicial review.
The decision has prompted internal debate within the JCE. Two of the five board members have formally questioned the prohibition, arguing that the full plenary of the organization should have been involved in the decision-making process regarding the regulation.
