Comment
The Optical Mark Recognition (OMR) system adopted by the Commission during the registration process was an effective system of discouraging double or multiple registrations. Photos of voters and registration numbers were both on their scannable Voter ID cards and Voters roll. Any attempt to double register would have been biometrically picked up by the system.
