The requirements for the legal acquisition of electoral residence must be broadened to favour greater control, prevent fraud and as a result strengthen the level of public trust in the electoral process, especially at the municipal level. A reasonable proposal could be to demand a specific minimum residence period of a year (as opposed to the current six months), corroborated by at least two witnesses.
