BY BARNABAS MANEBONA

VOTER Registration for the 2019 National General Election is set to start on September 3 and not on August 20 confirms the Solomon Islands Electoral Commission (SIEC).

This message was also clarified per the sms text yesterday to update the general public.

According to SIEC, August 20 was an old date agreed on which has been revised and confirmed to start early next month.

It is clarified on their social media webpage that the Registration is an update and only targets those who are not on the list (18yrs old) and those who would want to update their details.

“If you’ve voted in the 2014 NGE, then that means your name is already on the list therefore if you do not want to change anything, then you do not have to register.

“The update only looks to capture new eligible voters, those who missed out from registration and those who want to update their details,” stated on SIEC’s website.

For this, SIEC strongly reminds to make sure one register and update his or her voter details.
