Voter registration starts in West Bank for first Palestinian election in 20 years
The Palestinian Election Commission has launched the field voter registration phase in the West Bank for participation in the parliamentary elections scheduled for next November, which will be the first elections in nearly 20 years. Registration began at 467 centers and will continue until August 19, with non-registered individuals encouraged to register either online or at registration centers. Residents of Jerusalem are exempt from registration; however, Palestinians living in Jerusalem can register with proof of residence, and residents of Gaza can participate by having their names registered at voting centers. According to the commission, the number of registered voters has exceeded 1.6 million so far, representing approximately 86.5% of the voting rights, with expectations that the number will increase. The parliamentary elections are planned for November 28, with presidential elections scheduled for the first quarter of next year, following the last elections in 2006 and the postponement of electoral procedures due to Palestinian division.
