Six ballot papers from 2018 presidential elections were found in the ballot box at polling station N8 in village Avlevi of Kareli Municipality, where a journalist accredited for the elections by online newspaper of  Human Rights Center (HRC) www.humanrights.ge was observing the polling and counting process. 

Each such ballot paper was placed in an envelope along with the majoritarian ballot paper for 2020 Parliamentary Elections. 

The relevant candidate was marked on the presidential election ballot papers and had a signature and a stamp. 

As the observers of HRC verified, the mentioned signature does not belong to any of the registrars of the precinct. Further, the seal number was not that of the precinct. 

Following the request of the HRC observer, the Precinct  Election Commission decided to send the ballot papers along other ballot papers to the Central Election Commission.
