Voting Time Extended to Help More People Register to Vote.
The people who organize voting in Uganda have good news. They decided to give everyone extra time to register as voters. Instead of ending today, February 10, people can register until February 17, 2025.
Mr. Justice Byabakama, who leads the voting team, made this decision because many people asked for more time. He wants to make sure everyone who wants to vote can sign up. The voting stations will stay open every day from 8 a.m. until 6 p.m., even on weekends.
This extra time helps people who haven't registered yet. If you are 18 years old or older and live in Uganda, you can become a voter. This will let you vote in the big election coming up next year in 2026.
Some people might want to change where they vote. If you need to vote in a different place, you can ask to move your name to a new voting station. You just need to show that you live in or come from the new area. Remember to bring information about where you vote right now.
The voting team wants to help everyone check their information. They put a big book at each voting place that shows all the names of people who can vote there. You can look at this book to make sure your name and other details are correct. You can also check your voting information on the internet through the Electoral Commission's website.
This is a very important time for everyone in Uganda. The voting team wants to make sure all grown-ups have their chance to be part of choosing leaders in the next election.
