Meanwhile, the third day of postal vote counting continues at the CRC for both mayoral and municipal council elections.
As of Sunday at 10:00 AM, 54 postal ballot boxes for mayoral elections and 45 boxes for municipal council elections have been counted. These ballots were submitted by voters outside Kosovo via postal voting between September 17 and October 11, 2025, collected on October 13 and 14 from 23 CEC postal boxes across 22 countries and Kosovo itself.
A total of 33,841 packages of postal ballots have been processed for verification to ensure they were sent by registered voters. Of these, 29,636 packages were approved, while 3,977 were rejected, mostly due to missing registration proof in 3,660 cases, a required document issued by the CEC confirming voter registration.
