Third: How to Cast your Vote:

1- The voters must, when casting their votes, bring their passport or any official certified document (the affidavit to be issued by the Nationality, Passports and Residence Affairs if the passport is not available) and their ID card.

2- The Ballot Center shall have one or two entrances – depending on the center – through which entry order shall be preserved by using the specified door to enter.

3- The voters shall line up at the entrance, in form of queues, then head to the data auditors. One queue will be allocated for women which will be supervised by one of the female organizers. Another queue will also be allocated for people with special needs and the elderly. There will be female identity matchers for veiled women and an assistant to help people with special needs.

4- The data auditors will verify the identities of the voters and that their names are listed in the voters’ lists, then hand the voters the ballot papers and guide them to the ballot cabins.

5- The voter shall vote in complete privacy in the ballot cabins, by marking (√) in the circle next to the candidate’s picture on the parliamentary and municipal ballot papers.
