Presidential elections.
Presidential elections shall take place every four years on the first Saturday of June not
falling on the Saturday immediately preceding Whitsun, in which case the election shall be
held one week later, cf., however, paragraph 2. The National Electoral Commission shall
publicise the election no later than three months prior to election day and shall specify the
maximum and minimum number of nomination subscribers for a presidential candidate from
each quarter of the country proportional to the number of voters there.
In the event of the death of a sitting President or if the President stands down from office
before the expiry of the presidential term, a new President shall be elected within one year to
sit until 30 June of the fourth year from that election. In such event, the National Electoral
Commission shall decide the election day; in other respects, the provisions of this Act shall
apply.
