The Fijian Elections Office has deployed 15 teams to 24 islands in the Lau Group as part of their 2017 Nationwide Voter Registration Drive.

The team of 45 members will be in the Lau Group for the next 20 days.

The Fijian Elections Office has identified 72 polling venues in the Lau Group and states that there are 6,641 voters in the Lau Group as at 20th April this year.

Some of the services that will be provided by the Fijian Elections Office are electric voter registration, distribution of VoterCards 2.0, corrections and change of voter details, personal details check and verification of deceased voters.

The Fijian Elections Office says all Fijians must bring their birth certificate and a valid photo ID in order to register and if someone does not have an ID, the election officials will require that the voter’s identity be verified by a parent or the Turaga ni Koro, who must be a registered voter.

The Nationwide Voter Registration Drive ends on 1st July, 2017.
