# Ministry of Public Administration and Local Self-Government

The ministry responsible for the voter register. Despite ODIHR's requests, in 2023 it did not provide data on voters who changed their place of residence after the elections were called, and it called claims of “phantom voters” untrue. In 2026 it again failed to explain the unusually large number of voters registered at certain addresses, instead telling observers that these were politically biased allegations.
