A special Team for the Commissioner of Elections Office has been dispatched to study and research potential areas where ballot boxes are to be placed for the first ever multi party election in the Maldives. As this is the fist ever multi party elections to be held in Maldives, it is estimated that this will also be the most free and fair election.
The Elections Office says that this trip is part of the Office’s endeavor to make the Presidential Elections as transparent and as free as possible. The Office further said that the most important aim of this trip is to choose a potential location to place the ballot boxes, they said that the ballot boxes needed to be placed in an area where the organizers can organize the vote safely and freely and also where the organizers can report the preliminary results of the election.
The first two teams have already been dispatched to the southern most atolls of the Maldives. They are Addu Atoll and Fuvahmulah. The Addu Team has already started their work and the Fuvahmulah Team is scheduled to start work on Saturday.
While the Commissioner of Election’s Office has started their works to setup a free and fair election in Maldives, the candidates that will be competing in the elections have not yet been confirmed. The confirmed candidates are President Maumoon from Dhivehi Rayyithunge Party (DRP), Umar Naseer from Islamic Democratic Party (IDP), Ibrahim Ismail from Maldives Social Liberal Party (MSLP) and Dr. Hassan Saeed will be competing in the elections as an independent candidate. The candidate from the largest opposition party Maldivian Democratic Party will be decided after the party’s primaries.
