For the 2012 Elections, the National Electoral has decided to use a biometric system of registration. Registrants will have a picture taken and provide their thumb prints. This information will be used to make sure that there are no duplicated voters and ensure the integrity of the Voter’s Register. This is a new process for Sierra Leone with the goal to uphold the principle of ‘one person, one vote’ by seeking to avoid duplicated registration. NEC is confident that you can make this process a success, but only if you clearly understand your role and are dedicated to the process.
The Biometric Voter Registration Kit (BVR Kit) is central to the registration process. While the Data Entry Operator must be familiar with its operation and set-up, all Voter Registration staff should be familiar with its components and set-up. Below are diagrams illustrating the component parts of the BVR Kit.
