“The registration process for political parties for the October 4, 2025 elections of the representative body of the municipality – the Sakrebulo – and the mayor of a self-governing city/self-governing community has been completed. The election administration reviewed all submitted applications and the relevant documentation.
As a result, 14 parties have been registered and granted the right to participate in the elections. A total of 17 parties applied to the CEC for the right to participate; three were denied registration as they failed to meet the requirements established by law.
The next stage for political parties includes the submission of party lists, majoritarian candidates, and mayoral candidates to the relevant election commission (no later than September 4), after which the process of reviewing and registering the submitted documentation will begin,” the CEC statement reads.
