That will help in processing the final data from the registration, without constraints\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The electoral calendar will also be adjusted because a further amendment to the law reduced the time given to political parties to present their candidates. This will give the CNE more time for its internal work. In particular, it will calculate how many seats there will be in each municipal assembly, based on the 2023 registration, with no need to refer to the previous voter registration in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Cuinica told the reporters that all the election equipment and material has already been ordered and should arrive in January. That will allow the CNE to hold a pilot registration in February.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
