According to Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) and National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) officials, only 3 oversears voters registered for internet-voting in the upcoming PP168 by-elections.
The deadline for registeration for i-voting passed on Wednesday with only 3 overseas voters, out of a possible 4,667, registered for i-voting in the by-elections. This is a surprisingly low turn out for a system which cost billions of rupees to develop. It appears that concerned authorities need to raise more awareness to attract overseas voters towards taking part in electoral process in Pakistan.
By-elections in PP168 are part of the second experiment with i-voting in Pakistan. Previously, in the by-elections held on October 14, multiple constituencies were part of the first experiment of i-voting. Even in those elections, out of a possible 632,000 overseas Pakistani, only 7,419 voters registered to cast their vote.
