Govt commits to better voting process

This includes biometric voter registration.

“Next year’s election will be conducted in the presence of COVID in the community,” PM Marape said.

“Something that we might use to clean up the voting process is biometrics, and an Electoral Roll that registers electronically, with photographs attached for all our voting population.”

“This process will be looked into by the Electoral Commission.

“They have trialled an electronic-based voter update at a council ward in Kupiano (Central Province) and it worked very well.
