According to the NEBE, polling stations were arranged based on proximity to voters and based on voters’ registration patterns of the last five elections. The voters who were planning to register and vote in these polling stations can now register and vote in different polling stations. The board had also cautioned regional governments to refrain from using its election preparation mechanisms to advance controversial boundary disputes.

The letter concluded by urging the NEBE to revoke the decision and establish polling stations in the 8 kebeles the same way it did during the last five general elections. “Otherwise, we find it hard to participate in the upcoming election,” said the regional government.
