For the voting process, Polling and Counting Committees follow this sequence of steps:

  • Verify the identity of the voter by examining their identity card (if the voter is a veiled woman, a woman in the polling and counting committee verifies her identity)
  • Make sure that the name of the voter appears on the voter list for that polling and counting station
  • Mark the printed copy of the voter list and asks the voter to place their signature next to their name
  • Place a mark on the electronic version of the voter list to confirm the voter’s eligibility
  • Make sure that the index finger of the voter’s left hand is not stained with the indelible ink
  • Hand the voter one stamped and signed ballot booklet, reminding the voter that they must first vote for a list and then for that list’s candidates of their choice.
