The spokesperson of the Supreme Court, Arno Põder, said that there is currently one more complaint pending. This complaint concerns the secrecy of the meeting of the State Electoral Commission (VVK). This complaint does not directly affect the election results. A court decision on this complaint may come only at the end of this year or at the beginning of next year.
According to the Electoral Service, there are no more obstacles. Members of the council can now be registered. The head of the State Electoral Service, Arne Koitmäe, explained that the electoral commission will register the elected council members after the election day. This will happen when the deadline for filing complaints has passed or when the complaints have been finally resolved.
The election results will be announced when the electoral commission publishes its decision. This will happen the day after the decision is made public. If the elected candidate holds another position, they must inform within three working days whether they wish to participate in the council or continue in their current position. The electoral commission will convene the council no later than the seventh day after the announcement of the election results.
53 election complaints have been filed to the Supreme Court. This is three times more than four years ago. Currently, all complaints related to voting results have been resolved. The court has made 46 decisions. In nine cases, the complaint was partially or fully satisfied. Although deficiencies were found in the organization of the elections, according to the Supreme Court's assessment, they did not affect the voting results.
