Turn out was higher in villages in Badhan District and Dhahar Districts than the cities
70% of people in Somalia are under the age of 30, I'd assume out of the 70% only 40% are over the age of 18.The numbers are not that troubling to me, but the turnout in people from ages 40 to over 50s where the highest turnout was women, and young people under 30s.
- Only 11% over 50s,
- Only 10% between 41 - 50s,
- Worse yet, Only 19% between 30 - 40s.
Therein lies the biggest variance, and shall beget a political quandary at both district elections, and more so in parliamentary.
But then again, both Nugaal & Mudug resisted participation, and the general public was more focused on the SSC conflict de-interested in voting, let alone registration.
Do bear in mind, a good first attempt is the goal, and not perfection.
All in all, a very good starting point, with their being a plenty of time to remedy the process.
Postscript:
Voting age is set at 18, and not at 15, the 'qaan gaar' age, which makes a difference, and I think they are planning to address that in the future.
Guriceel town ALONE has more than 100K residents rn and I believe at this time it was part of Dhuusamareeb district and they had the audacity to estimat 140k im ded.View attachment 261055
Galgaduud goes from 500k to 700k yet S. Mudug goes from 300k to 200k and N. Mudug goes from 300k to 900k.

I’m not too familiar with the city as I’m not from anywhere near there but I’ve heard from officials that Sacad are the plurality but harti+Leelkase add up to make the majority.
The district control PL land size might be more but the Galmudug section is more densely populated so it must be a lot closer and you can probably assume it’s closer to 55-45 than 67-33 (2/3rds vs 1/3rd)

No disrespect but I could make the argument there are more Leelkase alone than Sacad in GaalkacyoI’m not too familiar with the city as I’m not from anywhere near there but I’ve heard from officials that Sacad are the plurality but harti+Leelkase add up to make the majority.

Maybe in the north near Sacad and Saleebaan Dhul and in this context you may be referring to that, but southern HG has a good border population in DDSI and is urbanising THOSE deegaans and trying to get them degmo statuses. Current crowdfunding is going on to build a few schools, wells, hospitals, etc in the shilaabo area due to the established increasing population in those lands.Galkacyo district outside of Galkayo itself has the following towns from largest to smallest, the rest are villages:
The district like the city is 2/3 Puntland in terms of population and in terms of land area.
- Bacaadweyn (PL)
- Xarfo (PL)
- Bandiiradley (GM)
- Galinsoor (GM)
- Cagaaran(PL)
- Saaxo (PL)
It is not really a single district but two districts that share a name.
PS. HG do not have substantial populations in Ethiopia.
Puntland side has large number of people from Ethiopia urbanizing inside Somalia.
I could equally make the argument there are more Reer Hilowle than Reer Biciidyahan in Gaalkacyo.No disrespect but I could make the argument there are more Leelkase alone than Sacad in Gaalkacyo
Garsoor is mostly Reer Biciidyahan and Leelkase and it’s the biggest xafaad in Gaalkacyo.I could equally make the argument there are more Reer Hilowle than Reer Biciidyahan in Gaalkacyo.
Leelkase, Cumar maxamuud, Mareexaan, Reer Bicidyahan, Awrtable &Dir are lumped togetherin one half of the Magaalo but Sacad who dominate their half is smaller than leelkase thats marti in the magaalo? Caqli xumo waa lagu ogaa cindi Majeerteen.
'biggest'(which it ain't) but the keyword is AND do not overstep your AND status whilst your counterparts Sacad hold the other whole half of GLK alone m8. Cumar Maxamuud AND Biciidyahan AND leelkase AND Mareexaan AND Mj yryar AND Awrtable dominate the North whilst ONLY Sacad dominates the other side, the south.Garsoor is mostly Reer Biciidyahan and Leelkase and it’s the biggest xafaad in Gaalkacyo.![]()

Saddex higlo, Docol, and Dagaari, which are all Sacad towns without district status, are as large as Gelinsoor, Cagaaran, Bacaadweyn, Xarfo and Bandiiradley, which are all part of the Gaalkacyo district, and larger than Saaxo that you want inaad ku qiimo badsato. Similarly, in Gaalkacyo town, MJ share the districts with several clans, whereas Sacad dominates their half without the aid of HG or HAG numbers.
I'm Glad I got under your skin, I can equally zoom in and out of maps brother. Stick to being a sensitive susan when hit with facts,Sadex Higlo

@DR OSMAN It is a good start. These are local government elections so people are not as interested as when parliamentary elections are held. The stakes are lower. It will be interesting to see how much voter registration increases when parliamentary elections are held.
@0117 Somaliland's voter registration figures are not reliable.
Sanaag should get a second run too many places missing.
The political climate have changed since then, deegaans west of Hadaaftimo and Ceerigaabo District should be included. Laasqoray district voters are the least represented 185 for a whole district is disrespectful we need registration in the mountains.The original voter registrations are listed below when announced in December
