Elections on May 22. And as on each occasion we find the possibility of being called to fulfill our duty as members of an electoral table. However, this duty of Democracy does not always come to us at the best time and we can find ourselves in personal circumstances that make it almost impossible to fulfill it without serious harm to us or our children. For that reason, the Central Electoral Board has clarified the cases in which we have the right to get rid of being at a polling station, something that I consider truly important for our readers.
The top referee in electoral material recently published the instruction detailing the causes that will allow to get rid of the citizen's obligation to participate in the polling stationsIt is and is appreciated that there is a recommendation that we can allege to explain that we should be exempt from spending so many hours fulfilling the duty we have as citizens in the specific cases.
In the aspects that interest our readers it is noteworthy to emphasize that breastfeeding mothers with children under nine months will be extended, whether or not they breastfeed, pregnant women with medical risk or those who are more than six months pregnant. Also exempt mothers from maternity leave.
In addition, it is clarified that those who are under the age of fourteen in their care, unable to leave them in charge of another person, can allege this fact to be exempt from attending, as it would be harmful for a child to be so many hours in the polling station.
To prove these circumstances that allow us to get rid of the obligation to be part of the polling stations It is necessary to provide specific documentation, different in each case. We can find all the information on the page of the Central Electoral Board.
