The president of the Independent High Authority for Elections (ISIE), Farouk Bouasker, stated that the body is operating so that potential presidential candidates get their number 3 ballots. He revealed this Saturday, August 4 that the ISIE works in collaboration with the administrative structures concerned, including the Ministries of Justice and the Interior…
Bouasker said, on Mosaïque FM, that the majority of those who withdrew the sponsorship form from the ISIE did not even present a request to obtain the B3, which at the very least demonstrates their lack of credibility. “Out of 114 individuals who collected form 6, barely made the financial guarantee deposit [10 thousand dinars],” he said.
On the other hand, 90% of potential candidates have obtained their B3s and for the others they just need to go to the police stations to get them, declared the president of the ISIE. He added that for some applicants other papers issued by courts are required to obtain B3s.
Since July 29, only 4 application files have been received by the body, affirms its president and certain files do not even have the required number of sponsorships, while the submissions will be closed this Tuesday, August 6…
Finally Bouasker reports that the ISIE will decide on the eligibility of the candidates from August 7 to 10, 2024 and that a press conference will be organized on the 11th of the same month to unveil the final list.
