The EC plans to conduct the vote counting immediately after the voting in wards with only one polling center. However, in areas with more than one polling center, the vote counting may be delayed as the ballot boxes need to be brought to a single location.
Voting is ongoing for 41 positions. The by-election will elect one municipality mayor, one deputy mayor, two rural municipality chairs, four vice-chairs, and 33 ward chairs, totaling 41 positions.
Out of the 44 vacant positions, three have already been elected unopposed. The Election Commission has stated that the election results can be viewed on its website.
