On the director's mind - Voters, be prepared

Walker

DIRECTOR OF Elections Danville Walker is apprehensive about voter co-operation (persons turning up without their voter identification cards, or not finding out beforehand where they will be voting). On Friday, several election day workers and members of the security forces were unable to vote as their names were not on the national voters list. They will instead vote on Wednesday along with civilians. The main reason given for the delay was that the names of some security personnel were still on the civilian voters list and had not been transferred.

According to recent polls, 74 per cent of the population will turn out to vote on Wednesday, October 16, 2002.
