Under the second “active” option, and in particular if issuance of national ID cards has not been rolled out nationwide in time for the first electoral cycle, the electoral management body could launch a voter registration exercise that requires citizens to attend a voter registration centre in order to register to vote and to be assigned to a polling centre, and in order to be issued with a voter card. As with the first option, an extensive exhibition period should follow, to allow voters to make claims for inclusion, or changes in their registration data, or to object to the inclusion of another voter. The principle of “you vote where you register” should be applied under this option.
