Full statement from Prince Ali on CAS ruling:


My central point throughout the campaign has been the honesty and integrity of the election, principles worth fighting for. I advocated for transparent voting booths on behalf of FA Presidents who want to vote their conscience, without worrying that someone with a different agenda is looking over their shoulder. I fought for them at FIFA and at CAS, and brought transparent booths to Zurich to eliminate any excuse for not using them. I have done all I can. I regret that the system let us down. The only positive aspect of today’s ruling is it that the election will now go forward as planned, and the media will be closely watching for any evidence that anyone is photographing their ballot. It is now imperative that voters abide by the ban on mobile phones and cameras in the voting booth. I look forward to Friday’s vote and remain as committed as ever to the goal of reforming FIFA.
