How late can you start voting on election day?
Voting Stations open at 7 o’clock AM across South Africa, and close at 9 o’clock PM.
When you arrive at the voting station in the voting district where you have registered, the electoral staff will:
1) check your ID and hands to ensure there is no ink on your fingers;
2) verify if the photo in your green bar-coded ID looks like you and verify that you are registered;
3) cross your name from the segment of the voters’ roll;
4) mark your left thumb with permanent ink
5) issue two ballot papers i.e. national and provincial ballot papers
6) direct you to a voting booth to cast your votes.
Once you have marked the ballot papers you must place your ballots in the ballot box
Myroof wishes you a happy elections day, and hope that you are already registered and eligible to vote so you can contribute in making South Africa even better.
