WILLEMSTAD - On January 23, the Electoral Council will implement a strict schedule for the submission of candidate lists. Each political party has been allotted 20 minutes for the process, with a delegation of up to ten individuals allowed to enter the building.
The rest of the supporters from each party will be required to wait outside the monumental Electoral Council building in Scharloo. The police will close off the road in front of the building to all vehicles, transforming it into a pedestrian walkway.
The 20-minute time frame for submitting candidate lists and other documents is based on the seventeen organizations the Electoral Council has been in contact with so far. Within this period, political parties will have the opportunity to address any issues with their documentation.
The submission of candidate lists will be broadcast live by Mauricia Productions. The audiovisual media will have access to a link from this company to broadcast the event to a wider audience. After the submission process, party leaders will have the opportunity to speak to the press, either in a designated area within the Electoral Council building or outside.
