Summary

SNSD leader Milorad Dodik wrote in an op-ed for SRNA that the optical-scanner voting system introduced in BiH is otherwise used only in the Philippines, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia and Iraq, and would raise the risk of technical errors and compromised ballot secrecy through the use of four separate ballots per voter. He questioned whether the BiH CEC and High Representative Christian Schmidt considered this, citing examples from Germany and France on electoral technology.
