Corjova polling station will remain closed

The Central Election Commission (CEC) has decided to leave the polling station in Corjova village closed following a petition by the Dubasari Constituency Council, Info-Prim Neo reports. The decision came after a group of roughly 300 persons blocked the entrance to the poling place. Power, water and gas supply was halted in the village, and the ballot box was taken away, said CEC chairman Eugeniu Stirbu. According to CEC's decision, the 1,350 eligible voters from Corjova will be able to cast ballots at the poling station no.4 in neighboring Cocieri, some 4 kilometers away, or in Ustia village, so as not to overload the former station. “The present situation renders voting in Corjova impossible, and this decision is to prevent potential incidents and keep the citizens in the region safe from any harm”, said Stirbu.
