According to the Central Election Commission, voting shall continue until 8.00 pm local time and may not end any later than 9.00 pm. In some countries, voting will end before 8.00 pm, because of the curfew introduced by the local authorities to contain the spread of Covid-19.

Members of sectional election commissions may not wear distinguishing signs of political parties, coalitions or initiative committees, or participate in election campaigning.
