On arrival at the polling centre the voter would present his/ her voter ID card to an election official. The Election Officer would then check for the voter’s name in the voter register and mark a cross on his/ her photo when identified, to prove that s/he has voted. If the voter is registered but does not have a card, s/he must prove to the presiding officer that the person is the one whose name appears on the voters register.
It was the first time the EBC used EVID kits to identify voters. It is important to note that this was on a trial bases thus used both EVID and paper, in case technology fails then they would still have the traditional method of voters list to identify voters.
