4 the power and mandate to “enact laws for the governance of [the] Commission.” LIB. CONST., ART 89(B) (1986). As a means of further ensuring that, although the Legislature had been given the authority to enact the Elections Law, that Body is guided and that the laws enacted by it reflect and manifest the broad will of the people, the Constitution, at Articles 77 to 84 set out the broad framework of the electoral process [from the definition and creation of political parties; to the eligibility of voters and rights of voters; to the manner, periods and timeframe for holding elections; to the hearing and appeal of electoral disputes, etc.] and the perimeters of the laws enacted by the legislature so that they do not transcend the permissible bounds of the statutory realm, as would infringed upon the Constitution and the will of the people. As part of the broad framework set for the conduct of public elections, the Constitution mandates that elections “for the President, Vice-President, members of the Senate and members of the House of Representatives shall be conducted throughout the Republic on the second Tuesday in October of each election year.” LIB. CONST., ART. 83(a) (1986). Further, the Constitution, apparently for the purpose of further clarity, and to minimize avenues for deviations or departures from the strict will of the people, and to ensure a stern and firm adherence to the will of the people, couched in various Articles in that sacred instrument, referenced herein, expressly mandates the Legislature, in enacting the Elections Law, pursuant to the mandate contained in Article 34(i), to “provide penalties for any violations of the relevant provisions of this Chapter VIII of the Constitution which specifically deals with political parties and elections], and shall enact laws and regulations in furtherance thereof not later than 1986; provided that such penalties, laws or regulations shall not be inconsistent with any provisions of this Constitution.” LIB. CONST., ART. 84 (1986). We should note that in furtherance of the constitutional mandate granted the Legislature to enact the Elections Law, a New Elections Law was enacted in 2006, and subsequently amended to reflect new and unfolding developments in the country.
