The dictator assures that the members of the election commissions work "for free."

At the polling station # 506 in Minsk, Lukashenka spoke about the scandalous incident in Brest, when observer Yury Vashchanchuk video-recorded an attempt to stuff a pack of ballots in a ballot box, Solidarity writes.

- Here are the members of the commission, what are they to blame? They work, they were asked, they don’t even get money for their work ... And you start putting pressure on them,” the ruler said.

Is it true that members of election commissions work for free?

Head of the CEC Lidziya Yarmoshyna has called the costs of “elections”, which included the salaries of members of election commissions.

According to her, a member of an election commission will receive BYN 76 on hand, which means after taxes, for working on the voting day. The net salary of chairpersons of precinct commissions for 30 days of work will amount to BYN 880. About BYN 1,770 in net are provided for 60 days of work of a chairperson of the district election commission.
