Continuous Registration
Register to
Vote, It Is Your Right
Continuous
Registration is the process whereby the Voters’ List is
continually maintained by adding the names of eligible
voters as well as deleting the names of those who no longer
meet eligibility requirements e.g. the dead.
This
means there is no need to automatically conduct a full
enumeration/registration as was the case in previous years. A
voters’ list is now produced and published every six months,
May 31 and November 31,
with the necessary additions and deletions. There is a cut off
date for registration which is two months before the
publication of the voter’s list.
Requirements for Registration
Persons who
are eighteen (18) years and over and who are not subject to
any legal incapacity are able to get registered. Persons not
eligible to be registered are convicted persons detained in
pursuance of their sentences, persons on suspended sentences,
persons certified as insane and lunatics as well as persons
detained as criminal lunatics.
