Voting to begin in Libyan local elections by mid-August

On June 25th, the head of Libya’s High National Elections Commission confirmed that the voting phase of municipal elections will take place before mid-August after multiple delays, according to Libya Review.
With the official list of candidates published after delays due to the commission verifying criminal records of applicants, voter cards will start being distributed across Libya from June 28th.
June 28th also marks the beginning of the official campaigning period, which will be monitored to ensure candidates are acting fairly and transparently.
