A total of 284 candidates, including 28 women, for thirty electoral districts are expected to run for the Shura Council elections scheduled for October 2.
The Supervisory Committee for the Shura Council elections announced the final list of candidates on Wednesday after the end of the period for submitting grievances and objections to the preliminary statements.
Candidates can start their electoral campaigns now in accordance with the legally established rules and regulations. The campaigns will end 24 hours before the start of the polling process.
The Ministry of Interior, in coordination with the Ministry of Culture and Sports, has allocated a number of gymnasiums and youth centres to hold seminars and to present electoral programmes for candidates. A candidate also has the right to hold a seminar in a hotel at his personal expense after notifying the Supervisory Committee.
As part of the facilities, Qatar Media Corporation launched last August a new website https://shuraelections.gov.qa/ that allows candidates to appear in the media through multiple media platforms, with equal opportunities, to present themselves and their programs to the voters in the electoral districts.
The services include personal photography, an introductory video for the candidate and his electoral programme, audio recording, graphic design, a television interview, and a radio interview.
