Mobile voting in Soroca: teams visit homes and hospitals
Today, hundreds of voters from the Soroca municipality requested a mobile ballot box to vote from home or while in hospitals, due to health issues. Electoral teams travelled to the homes and medical facilities of the applicants, bringing ballots, stamps, and the mobile ballot box, ensuring that every vote could be cast.
"Hello. We are voting at home".
Varvara Lozovanu, 85 years old, asked to vote via a mobile ballot box.
"I vote because I am a human being and I was born here and I have obeyed the law. It is a law for us. I voted because I love the people, for the people, for peace, for the country", says the woman.
People voted with the hope of a better future for their children.
"We voted for the country to be better, to have everything for ourselves and for the children".
"We voted for the future of the children and for ours and the whole country, for a better future".
"The vote caught me in the maternity ward and I am about to give birth to my child... and let's vote for a better Moldova, for a better future".
At polling station no. 4 in Soroca, 79 applications for a mobile ballot box were submitted by patients from the Soroca District Hospital.
"We come, we write down the person's data, we give the ballot and ask them to sign so that they can receive the ballot. Those who cannot travel, we go to the wards", says Diana Pușcaș, a representative of a polling station, Soroca.
According to electoral legislation, a mobile ballot box can be requested by voters who, for health reasons or other valid reasons, cannot travel to the polling station in their country.
