This procedural step is crucial for the electoral process, as the assigned numbers will appear on ballots, helping voters identify their chosen candidates and parties.
The draw, conducted by the CEP, is a standard administrative procedure designed to ensure fairness and transparency in electoral campaigning. Each participating party or political grouping will receive a unique number, which becomes their identifier throughout the election period.

The list of parties and their assigned numbers is expected to be made public shortly.
