Additional information:

On January 29, a freelance journalist was not allowed to film at the 26th polling station of the Nasimi-Sabayil electoral district No. 23. Members of the election commission prohibited Gahramanli from filming, claiming that his accreditation had allegedly expired, the journalist told Turan news agency. However, this was not the case. Then, he was threatened with the police if he did not leave the polling station. In turn, a representative of the Nasimi-Sabayil electoral district No. 23, in an interview with Turan's correspondent, denied the accusations of putting pressure on the journalist.
