The Independent High Electoral Commission (IHEC) has set, today, Wednesday, the date for sending the names of the candidates who win the seats at the House of Representatives to the Federal Court for approval, while noting that all complaints submitted to the Federal Court are related to technical issues.
The member of the media team of IHEC, Imad Jamil, told the Iraqi News Agency (INA): "The names of the candidates who win seats at the House of Representatives will be sent today to the Federal Court for approval," noting that "there is no specific time period for the approval of the submitted appeals."
He added, "The complaints submitted to the Federal Court are about the coordination framework and the examining company, the delay in results, and tapes of the stations, as well as invalid papers and equipment failure, and all of which are technical issues."
