lpv:translated text	". − Democracy is unimaginable without elections. Therefore it is essential to resolve all issues relating to voters’ rights and remove all legal barriers to a successfully functioning democracy at both national and EU level. Elections have to be democratic and citizens must have a right to vote and stand in elections. This applies in particular to European Parliament elections and the respective rights of EU citizens residing in a Member State of which they are not nationals. It is commendable that provisions in the directive will alleviate some of the burden placed on national authorities and improve the current situation in terms of administrative convenience for the prospective candidate and for the states concerned. However, we should be putting more effort into reaching a compromise regarding a reform of the mechanism to prevent double voting."@en1
