The Electoral Commission (EC) has launched an online platform to enable Ugandan citizens to confirm or select their designated polling stations ahead of upcoming elections.
Through the EC’s web portal — http://ec.or.ug/register — voters can search for their names in the national voters’ register and verify whether a polling station has been assigned to them.
According to the EC, if a voter’s name appears in the register without an associated polling station, they will be guided through a simple, step-by-step process to select one. The process includes choosing a district, constituency, subcounty, parish or ward, and finally, the preferred polling station.
Once the steps are completed, the voter’s record will be updated with the specified location, ensuring a smooth and organized voting experience.
The Commission encourages all eligible voters to use the online tool to avoid confusion on election day and to ensure they are properly assigned to a polling station.
