Supreme board of elections points to new voters for increase in voters

The Supreme Board of Elections (YSK) said yesterday that a number of municipalities which had been dissolved due to insufficient populations can take part in local elections next March. Also on allegations concerning 6 million new voter registrations, the YSK said that the increase was partially attributable to the registration of some 2 million new eligible voters, adding that the official voter rolls will be republished and opened for revision.
