Elections Commission (EC) has opened re-registration for this year’s local council elections and Women’s Development Committee (WDC) elections.
In an announcement today, the EC said re-registration is open for voters living abroad and for those who wish to vote at a location other than their registered residential island. The re-registration window opened at 10:00am today and will remain open until 3:00 pm next Monday.
