Your voting stations

This weekend will be the final voter registration weekend for the upcoming elections.

Voting stations will be open from 8am to 5pm and everyone who is eligible to vote is encouraged to register.

The Electoral Commission of South Africa (IEC) says voters’ preparations are in place for the country’s 22 925 voting stations to open from 8am to 5pm over the weekend.

In a statement released by the Electoral Commission, it is explained that this process will allow new voters to register and existing voters to update and to check their address and registration details.

Each voting station will be stocked with registration forms in all official languages, maps of the wards to help locate voters’ place of residence and copies of the current voters’ roll along with various stationery items and sign

boards.

Each voting station will also be equipped with a “zip zip” ID scanner which contains the voters’ roll and helps to link each visitor to the voting station and ward.

Voting stations will be staffed by an average of three registration officials to assist voters swiftly and efficiently.

The Electoral Commission is especially eager for young, first-time voters to register as a new generation of participants in our 25-year-old electoral democracy.

Special registration drives are also being planned for tertiary education campuses once they open in February to help boost youth registrations. Registered voters can also do this online via the “Click, Check and Confirm” facility on the Electoral Commission’s website at www.elections.org.za

All South African citizens aged 16 and older, in possession of an official ID document, can register as voters (although only those who are at least 18 years old on voting day may vote).

Voters should take their bar-coded ID book, smart card ID or temporary ID certificate when they go to register.

The Electoral Commission Contact Centre (0800 11 8000) has been activated to assist all citizens with queries regarding registration and the upcoming elections in all official languages.

It can be contacted between 8am and 5pm weekdays.

It will also be open during the registration weekend. Agents also respond to emails on info@elections.org.za and to text messages via the Electoral Commission’s Twitter handle (@IECSouthAfrica) and Facebook page (IECSouthAfrica).

Registered voters can visit the Electoral Commission website (www.elections.org.za) to check their current registration details and voting station location.

They can also SMS their ID number to 32810 to receive an SMS containing the address of their voting station (charged at R1).
