MEC Targets 75 Percent of 10 Million Voters in 2025

The Malawi Electoral Commission says it targets having at least 75 percent of 10 million voters which the National Statistical Office estimates would be eligible to vote in 2025 general elections.

MEC commissioner, Francis Kasaila, has told Zodiak Online that they hope to achieve the figures using the newly proposed poling and registration centres which the commission is establishing together with local authorities, aiming to reduce voter apathy resulting from long distances.

Kasaila said this yesterday in Machinga North East Constituency where 10 new poling centers on top of 25 existing ones have been identified.
