We are confident that we can complete the electoral process without a hitch,” he told “Agenzia Nova” Abu Bakr Marda, member of the Board of Directors of Hnec. Municipal elections in Libya are governed by a new regulation issued by the Election Commission last October. A second phase of local elections is expected to be held in January. According to members of the Commission, these elections represent a key test for future presidential and legislative elections, blocked by years of conflict and uncertainty. The EU also urged candidates to engage in the electoral process with integrity and in compliance with the code of conduct established by the High Independent Electoral Commission (Hnec).
