After the polls close, Precinct Election Commissions (PECs) finalize polling station results protocols and send scanned copies to the CEC. According to election legislation, the protocols are to be made available on the CEC’s website upon receipt from PECs. Concurrently, the original copies, as well as other voting materials from the polling stations, will be delivered to respective District Election Commissions (DECs) for results tabulation. The DECs calculate and finalize the results for majoritarian races, while the tabulated proportional race results are sent to the CEC to process and finalize.
