Art. II-79 codifies election-process stages with public-record obligations. Art. III-179 / IV-254 codify continuous commission meetings producing publicly-available protocols. Art. III-187 / IV-282 codify promulgation of results in Holos Ukrainy + Uriadovyy Courier + CEC website. Building blocks of public verification, though not a single signed downloadable package.

Art. IV-282 codifies promulgation of results within 5 days. Art. II-100 (presidential candidate disclosures) is unrelated. Precinct-level protocols are publicly posted (Art. II-115 / III-166), enabling citizen re-tally from public data, though standing is limited.

Art. II-117 codifies polling hours 8:00-20:00 + out-of-country precinct hours. Art. II-115 (not in FTS top-5) codifies ballot-paper packaging by printer with three-copy chain-of-custody protocols posted publicly at district commissions. Tamper-evident handling of physical ballots codified; no voting machines exist to certify.

No candidate sections returned by FTS.

Art. II-115 codifies comprehensive ballot-paper chain of custody: printer → CEC → district commission with three-copy protocol (one for CEC, one for commission, one posted publicly), then to precinct commissions under the same protocol. Ballot storage requires safe / metal case / separate room. Art. III-166 / IV-242 reinforce for MP and local elections.

“A district election commission shall, at its meeting, accept the ballot papers, packaged by the printing enterprise, from a representative of the Central Election Commission”

Art. IV-254 codifies territorial-commission continuous meeting after voting to receive and verify precinct protocols (acting as canvass verification). Art. I-35 codifies commission legal personality. No separate post-election manual audit is codified — verification operates through the canvass chain.

Art. IV-254 codifies the territorial commission's continuous meeting to verify precinct protocols, with discrepancy-driven recount of precinct results. Art. III-179 reinforces for MP elections. This functions as a paper-based canvass verification rather than a separate fixed-percentage or risk-limiting audit. Ordinal level 1: hand-verification of precinct totals against territorial sum.

No candidate sections returned by FTS.

Art. I-47 codifies public information about commission decisions including vote-counting. Art. I-23 (Publicity and Transparency) codifies that election commissions ensure transparency. Art. I-58 codifies official-observer access to all commission meetings including the canvass-verification meetings of district / territorial commissions.

Art. IV-289 codifies supplementary-election procedure when precinct results are invalidated. Art. I-35 codifies commission legal-personality. CEC protocols are binding — codified throughout Books II-IV, with results becoming official upon CEC promulgation (Art. III-187 / IV-282).

No section in the FTS-surfaced candidates satisfies this criterion. Best signal: Art. III-153 (electoral fund accounts reporting), Art. II-97 (presidential candidate fund reporting) — unrelated to voting-system source code. Ukraine is paper-only; no voting-system source-code regime exists.

Art. III-145 codifies precinct-commission compliance with uniform application of legislation on elections. Art. III-143 / II-86 codify CEC pre-election powers. Art. IV-232 codifies special information support for local elections (registered candidates / ballot information). Art. II-108 codifies repeat-voting procedure. Pre-poll publication of ballot information codified though without cryptographic signature.

Art. I-58 codifies official-observer rights for candidates, parties, and accredited NGOs (with comprehensive disqualification list for aggressor-state nationals). Art. I-60 codifies NGO observer permission (50-day pre-election threshold). Art. III-167 / IV-239 / II-112 codify per-commission registration of observers. Comprehensive domestic observer regime.

“Official observers from candidates and parties (party organizations) that are electoral subjects, and from nongovernmental organizations, which have been granted a permission to have official observers in the respective election, in accordance with the procedure established by this Code, may take part in the election process.”

Art. I-59 codifies international-observer accreditation by CEC: foreign states / international organizations submit proposals directly or via MFA at least 7 days before national / 10 days before local election. CEC issues identification documents and decides accreditation no later than 5 days before voting. Citizens of Ukraine may not be accredited as international observers but may serve as interpreters.

“Official observers from foreign states or international organizations shall be accredited by the Central Election Commission.”

Art. III-187 codifies promulgation of MP election results no later than the 5th day after establishment of results, in two state newspapers + CEC website. Art. II-127 codifies CEC establishment of presidential results within 10 days (no later than the 3rd day after receipt of all district protocols). Art. IV-282 codifies local-election promulgation within 5 days. Ordinal level 2: precinct-level results are accessible within hours via posted commission protocols, with formal promulgation within 5-10 days.

“The Central Election Commission shall, no later than the fifth day of the day of establishing the results of the election, promulgate the results of the election of MPs in the newspapers Holos Ukrainy and Uriadovyy Courier, as well as publish them on its official website.”

Art. III-162 codifies CEC ballot-paper production via state-budget-funded printing-enterprise contracts. Art. IV-242 codifies local-election printing. Multiple printing enterprises permitted by tender; no voting-equipment vendors exist in a paper-only regime.

No candidate sections returned by FTS.

No section in the FTS-surfaced candidates satisfies this criterion. Best signal: Art. IV-242 / III-162 / III-163 codify per-election printing-enterprise contracts (no perpetual lock-in possible since contracts are tendered per election cycle). Specific maximum-duration clauses are not codified.

No candidate sections returned by FTS.

Art. I-16 codifies secret voting + prohibits any form of control over voter expression. Art. I-17 codifies personal voting (no proxy, no transfer). Art. I-9 (not surfaced for this datapoint) codifies secret-ballot principle. Reinforced by criminal provisions in the Criminal Code (separate instrument). Strong codified ballot-secrecy mandate.

“Voting in elections in Ukraine shall be secret. Any form of control over the content of the expression of a voter’s will, establishing or disclosing the content of a voter’s will with regard to a particular voter shall be prohibited.”

No candidate sections returned by FTS.

Art. II-121 / III-176 / IV-251 codify precinct-commission protocols. Art. II-122 / III-177 codify grounds to declare voting in a precinct invalid. Precinct establishment is codified in Art. I-30 (regular precincts up to 2,500 voters; large precincts subject to special procedures) but not in the FTS top-5 for this datapoint.
