The Joint Economic Commission (JEC) is extending the possibility of voting by mail for another morning

Correos asked for the extension “in an effort to favor the exercise of the right to vote by all interested citizens,” claiming that it involved “extraordinary human effort and resources for Correos.”

José Luis Alonso Nestal, Deputy Director of Postal Operations, confirmed this morning that there are still “170,000 votes to be collected”, and assured that “everyone is calm” because “the offices will not close if you are in line”. The Postal Service estimates that a large number of people who have not yet gone to the branch can do so in the next few hours.
