Nearly 40,000 new voters in electoral roll


KUALA LUMPUR: A total of 39,019 Malaysians aged 18 and above were automatically registered as new voters in the Supplementary Electoral Roll for May 2024.

Election Commission (EC) secretary Datuk Ikmalrudin Ishak said the electoral roll also contained 6,547 registered voters who had changed constituencies and 1,710 voters who had changed their status or category of voter.

He said the electoral roll was gazetted yesterday and is now open for review for 30 days until Aug 13.

The EC provides five methods of review, namely through the EC portals at https://www.spr.gov.my or https://mysprsemak.spr.gov.my; the official portal of state election offices at http://ppn.spr.gov.my; and online application at https://myspr.spr.gov.my.

He said the review could also be done through the MySPR Semak mobile application or the Voter Registration Check hotline at 03-8892 7218.

Ikmalrudin also called on Malaysian citizens aged 18 to check the electoral roll.

“If they find that their names are not listed in the electoral roll, they can make a claim by filing in Form C through the online app at https://myspr.spr.gov.my or visit the state EC office concerned,” he said.

He said registered voters in any constituency who wish to object to the entry of voters who changed to their constituency could fill in form D.

“Forms C and D can also be downloaded from http://ppn.spr.gov.my and should be submitted to the state election director concerned,” he added. — Bernama
