In view of the total dysfunction of the postal ballot, the BEC is advised to remove it as a polling option for security agents, displaced electoral personnel, polling staff and persons in legal detention. The postal ballot should be replaced by other different voting options: the BEC is advised to facilitate the voting of all the Security agents by a special voting day for the security forces at least ten days prior to the scheduled Election Day; for polling staff the BEC is advised to facilitate the use of an additional or supplementary voter list in each PC/PB that would include all the electoral/polling staff present at the PC/PB so as to permit them to vote; for prisoners the BEC is advised toconsider holding elections inside the 67 prisons of the country by designating all prisons as ‘special polling centres’ for the elections.
