Authorities begin reviewing election results: NA Chairman Tran Thanh Man
Preliminary statistics so far show that 99.69% of voters nationwide participated in the elections, and no re-voting was required in any electoral unit. Localities are continuing to compile and carefully review the data in order to report the election results to the National Election Council, said NA Chairman Tran Thanh Man.
Hanoi - Speaking at the fourth conference of the NA Party Committee for the 2025–2030 term on March 16, Chairman of the NA and Chairman of the National Election Council (NEC) Tran Thanh Man said local authorities are now compiling and verifying election data before submitting their reports to the NEC. The council is scheduled to meet on March 22 to review the data and announce the official election results.
The Ministry of Home Affairs said voting concluded nationwide at 9 pm on March 15, with polling teams required to complete vote counting within 24 hours after the close of voting at each polling station.
At the local level, commune-level People’s Committees are tasked with receiving, managing and storing ballots and ballot boxes from polling stations. Under archival regulations, ballot boxes must be preserved for at least five years, during which sealed ballots cannot be opened or examined without written authorisation from a competent authority.
Election committees will begin aggregating vote-count results from polling stations after March 15 to prepare official records for each constituency.
Once vote-count reports are received and verified, and any complaints or denunciations addressed, election committees will issue official minutes confirming the election results for their constituencies.
Records confirming the results of the NA deputy election must be sent to the NEC, provincial-level election committees and provincial-level Viet Nam Fatherland Front (VFF) committees within five days since the election.
Meanwhile, confirmation records for People’s Council deputy elections must be submitted within the same timeframe to the election committee at the corresponding level, the standing board of the People’s Council, the People’s Committee, and the standing board of the VFF at that level.
