Tunisia extends voter registration deadline

2011-07-31

Tunisia's Independent High Electoral Commission (ISIE) extended the deadline for voter registration in the October 23rd elections to August 14th, TAP reported on Saturday (July 30th). The closing date was previously set for August 2nd. Registration offices will be open from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and mobile registration offices will be ready to receive citizens during Iftar.

"Only 16% of the total number of … identity card holders have registered to vote for the Constituent Assembly," TAP quoted ISIE chairman Kamel Jendoubi as saying at a press conference on Friday. "This situation is below what we hoped for."
