Details

The Ministry of Interior ( http://www.moi.gov.om/ ) has a website dedicated to Municipal Councils Elections ( http://www.election.gov.om/ ) that provides details of the candidates and live voting results.

Municipal Councils Elections are the second most important elections in the country after the Shura Council Elections (the lower house of the Parliament) the website for the Shura Council ( http://www.shura.om ) is currently down.

Reviewer: the Municipal Councils Elections website (http://www.election.gov.om/) was down at the time of review. It is thus unclear what the availability of elections data is in general as its publication does not seem particularly sustainable with both websites being down (the Shura Council one is down at the time of review as well).

Reviewer comments

No amendments were introduced as the website on which the evaluation was made is down. Please consider the comments.
