Government and Prosecutor's Office Request Supreme Court Approval for Naturalized Voting

The State Attorney's Office has submitted a request to the Supreme Court seeking the lifting of the precautionary measure affecting the electoral roll of the 'grandchildren law', thereby allowing those who have been naturalized to vote in the general elections scheduled for November 29.

The Government argues that it is materially impossible to review the cases of approximately 170,000 naturalized individuals before the election date, which it cites as a reason for its request to the High Court.

For its part, the Prosecutor's Office has also requested that the Supreme Court allow voting for all naturalized citizens under the 'grandchildren law', arguing that the early elections have created serious difficulties in complying with the previously imposed precautionary measure.

The Prosecutor's Office has expressed its stance on the necessity for the Court not to review the electoral roll of the 'grandchildren law' before the elections, suggesting that such a review could deprive a significant number of people of their right to vote.

Iustitia Europa, a political party, has called for the elections to be suspended until it is clarified who is eligible to vote under the 'grandchildren law', highlighting the State Attorney's inability to analyze all the cases in time.

The Supreme Court has given the parties 48 hours to present arguments on this urgent matter, while the requests continue to be evaluated by the jurists involved in the process.
