The Chief Electoral Officer Dr Kostas Constantinou, questioned by journalists in the context of the statement on the final voter turnout figure, if there was anything noteworthy in the interim since the last update, he replied in the negative and added that only "some minor issues were directly handled by the Registrars".
In response to another reporter's question about where he ranks this election, based on his general experience of conducting elections, Dr. Constantinou noted that "the previous election ran amidst the pandemic conditions of Covid-19."
He said, in this regard, that "it was an unprecedented process and experience for all of us. I have told my colleagues with whom we worked on the 2021 Parliamentary Elections that anything newer seems easier."
"But I think the elections we had these two Sundays were exemplary. Political culture was demonstrated at a very high level," the Auditor General continued, concluding by again congratulating "the voters for the very high level of political culture that has been demonstrated in these two elections."
