Loose Procedures, Voter List

Entry procedures were very loose indeed, at least at booth #33 (Kathmandu-5). One would need to present his election identification and see if his name is on the voters list at that booth; given both, he would get a slip that would allow him to enter the booth and cast his vote.Volunteers at the booth initially had trouble finding certain names -- the list was not ordered in any sensible way -- and those around the registration area seemed to encourage even those not on the list -- but of legal age -- to vote. Even on the behalf of others, although such conduct is discouraged.Voter lists were also available online at the Election Commission's website: www.election.gov.np
