The Solomon Islands Electoral Commission has announced- the Omission and Objection period will be extended until August 11.
Confirming the extension to local journalists in a media conference yesterday Chief Electoral Commissioner Polycarp Haununu says the extension is necessary to give all registered voters more time to check their names on the Provisional Voters Lists and lodge claims of Omission or Objection if necessary.
“On the Omission and Objection period I would like to say that we have extend it from today to the 11th of August, so the Commission see there is a need for an extension period to allow our people to check the lists if their names and anyone whose name should not be included to apply for objection once they are registered for the wrong constituency.”
