According to the poll panel, polling places are equipped with enough shade, drinking water, ramps, restrooms, and other necessities to guarantee that voters cast their ballots in a safe and comfortable atmosphere. Polling parties have been sent to their designated polling places with voting equipment and supplies.
The Commission has called upon voters to turn out in large numbers at polling stations and vote with responsibility and pride.
