Conduct of Elections
Poll is taken at the Polling Stations established for the purpose of conducting the elections. Only one polling booth can be established for one polling district unless the polling stations are created for males and females separately.
Experienced officers such as staff officers of government service, Class I officers of Public Management Assistants’ Service, Development Officers or experienced officers in the Graduate Officers’ Service, Principals, Class I or Class 2 – 1 teachers of the Teachers Service are appointed as Senior Presiding Officers mostly.
SPOs are selected confidentially and staffs for Polling Stations are selected from officers serving in government offices and schools in various areas.
Where the number of voters at a polling station is less than 1200, only one queue is arranged and when it is above 1201 two queues are arranged.
One queue needs 4 officers and in addition to this minimum no. of one Junior Presiding Officer for each queue and a polling station assistant (an additional SPO, depending on the need) will be attached to the SPO for his assistance.
