The Electoral Commission has officially announced that the 620 polling stations which had not commenced the display of the National Voters Register (NVR) on the scheduled start date of April 25 have now begun the crucial electoral process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The delayed stations, which include registers for both general voters and Special Interest Groups, are now displaying the NVR, granting residents a full 21 days to verify their registration details in line with legal requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Electoral Commission spokesperson Julius Muchunguzi confirmed the update in a statement delivered today, emphasizing that the late-starting polling stations will not be disadvantaged. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThese 620 polling stations will as well get the opportunity to display the National Voters Register for 21 days as required statutorily in the law,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The display exercise allows voters to confirm the accuracy of their names and photographs, report deceased individuals still on the list, identify those who are underage, and flag cases of multiple registrations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This, Muchunguzi stressed, is vital to ensuring a credible and accurate voter register ahead of the next elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Commission has deployed its staff to all 38,315 polling stations across the country. These teams are operating daily from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., including weekends and public holidays, to support the verification process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis exercise is the foundation of a credible, clean election,\u201d Muchunguzi reiterated, calling on Ugandans to take full advantage of the display period and report any anomalies through the established legal channels, including parish tribunals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Electoral Commission continues to urge all eligible voters to participate actively in the process to ensure the integrity of Uganda\u2019s electoral system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
