There will be no electronic vote in the Barça elections

Although one of the candidates for the presidency of Barça, Víctor Font, had requested that Barça implement electronic voting in elections due to the pandemic situation, that route is completely ruled out.

The Secretary General of L'Esport de la Generalitat, Gerard Figueras, closed the door to electronic voting in RKB's No Concessions program. “The law is very clear, it does not contemplate it. Voting to elect a board of directors or to cast a vote of no confidence cannot be done electronically, but rather they must be in person. A modification was made so that the digitization was helping the clubs in the ordinary management. But when we talk about essential decisions, which affect the entire social mass, voting must be in person. In municipal or general elections, elections are still in person and on paper. The stairs must be climbed step by step. When these systems are approved at the level of government institutions, we will also adapt them, “he explained.

Gerard Figueras also announced that next week there will be a summit between the general secretariat of L'Esport, the Ministry of Health and Barça to set the logistics of the elections and perhaps set an official date. The possibility of a multi-venue and several days of voting is open.
