How To Vote:

Voters must appear at their respective polling stations on the election day to cast their ballots. An official at the polling station will verify that the voter's name matches their identification document and the voter list. Subsequently, a different official will ink the voter's finger and provide them with a slip of paper before having them sign a register (Form 17A). After this, people can exercise their right to vote by selecting None of the Above (NOTA) or clicking the vote button for the party or candidate they support.
