Voter registration is a constitutional prerequisite for every election process. It is the basis for the conduct of elections and choice by voters of their leaders.
The process of voter registration is continuous, allowing anybody who is qualified to vote for various leadership positions to do so at any time. However, this process does not normally translate to a high number of people joining the voters’ register. Consequently, every so often, the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission conducts what it refers to as enhanced continuous voter registration (ECVR).
