More than 24,000 names added to voters' list

 
The Electoral Office of Jamaica (EOJ) says more than 24,000 names were added to the May 31 voters' list.
 
The additional 24,461 names bring the total number of registered voters to 2,077,799.
 
The EOJ says the newly registered voters are eligible to vote in future elections and referenda. 
 
Electors added to the May 31 list will be able to collect their voter ID cards by the end of this month at EOJ constituency offices where they are registered. 
 
The deadline to register for the November 30 voters' list is September 30. Individuals who are currently registered should not reapply. 
 
Given the upcoming general election, the EOJ is urging all registered voters who have not collected their renewed voter ID cards to do so as early as possible. 
 
Additionally, voter ID cards were automatically renewed for some electors registered in 2016 or after. 
 
Electors who were registered during that period and did not receive the new ID cards are being asked to contact their constituency offices.
