When is the voice invalid? How to vote in the presidential election?


The presidential election will take place on Sunday, May 18, 2025. If the second round is needed, it will take place on June 1. Two candidates will face it who will get the best results in the first round.
The voting procedure is simple – “X” should be put in a grid next to the selected candidate. It is crucial for the voting card to be provided with the seal of the electoral commission, which confirms its authenticity.
A properly cast voice is the basis. The instruction on the electoral card explains what to do to make the voice valid. However, voting will be invalid if:
– the card will be empty;
– “X” will be placed outside the appropriate grille;
– “X” will be with the names of two and more candidates;
– the “x” sign will not cut at least two grille lines;
– The sign “X” will be replaced with another symbol.
