Voting Starts in Northeastern Syria
Polling stations opened in the Hasakah and Qamishli districts of Hasakah province, as well as in the Ain al-Arab district of Aleppo province, a news agency reported, citing the committee’s announcement.
The committee explained that 12 contenders are vying for two seats in Ain al-Arab from an electoral body of 100 members. Meanwhile, 13 hopefuls are competing for three seats in Hasakah, where 150 electors are eligible to cast their votes.
In Qamishli, seven candidates are standing for four seats within an electoral body of 198 members.
The news agency noted that in Hasakah’s al-Malikiyah district, the designated seats were filled without competition after only two candidates submitted their registration.
Voting is scheduled to continue until midday, with the possibility of extending by one hour if the minimum participation requirement is not achieved.
Counting of ballots will begin immediately after polling concludes, with preliminary outcomes anticipated later on Sunday.
