The Elections and Boundaries Commission (the Commission) is pleased to announce that its Special Voting has successfully begun earlier today. The initial proceedings were relatively smooth.

The establishment of Special Polling Stations, in keeping with special voting requirements, is an integral part of the Commission’s responsibility to conduct elections and will continue over the coming days. Designated Special Electors are reminded that they must actively engage in the process and are encouraged to collect their designated special envelopes promptly.

16,748 Special Electors are expected to cast their votes in the upcoming days. Over 1400 individuals exercised their right to vote in today’s proceedings.
