valimisvooru

Valimisvoor is an Estonian term that translates to "election round" or "voting round" and refers to a specific stage or phase within a larger electoral process. In Estonian parliamentary and local government elections, the term might describe the period during which voters cast their ballots, or it could refer to a specific day or set of days designated for voting. Estonia has a unique system of electronic voting, known as i-voting, which is also part of the valimisvoor. This allows citizens to cast their votes remotely over the internet during a designated period prior to the traditional election day. The overall valimisvoor encompasses both this early electronic voting period and the final day(s) when voters can cast their ballots in person at polling stations. The duration and specific dates of the valimisvoor are determined by electoral law and announced by the relevant election authorities. The successful completion of the valimisvoor is essential for the democratic functioning of the Estonian state, ensuring that citizens have the opportunity to participate in selecting their representatives.
