The Election will be conducted by way of i-voting. The Election will be held on THURSDAY, 24 OCTOBER 2019 between the hours of 7.00am and 7.00pm (Singapore time, both times inclusive) (‘Election Hours’). The Election Hours will be strictly observed.

3. ELECTION DAY

The election web portal will be open for voting from 7.00am and will close at 7.00pm sharp (Singapore time) on Thursday, 24 October 2019. To vote, a voter has to log on to the election web portal together with a one-time password sent to the registered mobile number.

After successful verification by the system, the ballot screen will appear. Once the ballot is made available on the voter’s screen, the voter may select the candidates by checking the box next to the candidates’ names and review the ballot carefully before submission. Once the ballot is submitted, the process is irreversible. The system will also not permit the voter to login again once submission is made. See here for an illustration of the voting process.

Voting terminals will be set up at the Society’s premises for members who are required to vote but failed to register or do not have access to a computer, mobile phone or tablet. Please bring along your NRIC or any photo identification document to vote personally at the Society’s premises from 8am to 6pm. Voting at the Society’s premises will be by way of i-voting only.

Yours faithfully
