DEVELOPING STORY: Polls Open for Deferred Elections
Voters in 47 constituencies in the Somali, Harari and Southern regional states, as well as Dire Dawa City Administration, are casting their ballots in the sixth national elections. These were some of the constituencies that did not go to the polls along with most of the country in June this year, as the National Election Board of Ethiopia (NEBE) deferred votes due to irregularities with voters’ registration and security concerns.
A total of 7.6 million voters are expected to cast their ballots today.
