Postal Dept completes 97% distribution of Polling Cards for Election

Date:

September 17, Colombo (LNW): The Postal Department has announced that approximately 97 per cent of official polling cards for the upcoming 2024 presidential election have been successfully distributed.

Deputy Postmaster General Rajitha Ranasinghe confirmed that the distribution process, which began on September 03, concluded on September 14, ensuring that most eligible voters have received their cards well in advance of the election date.

However, for those who have yet to receive their polling cards, the department has made provisions to address this issue. Voters who haven’t received their cards are advised to visit their local post office starting September 18.

By presenting their National Identity Card (NIC), they can verify their identity and obtain their polling card in person.

This arrangement is designed to accommodate any remaining voters and ensure no one is left without the necessary documentation to cast their vote.
