Gwangju City Election Commission "Report Absentee Voters from 10th to 14th"

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] The Gwangju Metropolitan City Election Commission announced on the 9th that people who have severe physical disabilities and cannot move must report from the 10th to the 14th.

If you report for absentee voting, you can vote by mail at the hospital, home, or wherever you are staying.

Among soldiers (including those subject to enlistment) and police officers who can vote early, those who work inside the base or unit and cannot receive the candidate's election brochure delivered to each household can apply for the brochure delivery via internet, mobile, or in writing during the same period.

Voters who move their address due to relocation must complete the move-in report by the 10th to vote at the polling station of the new address on election day.

Voters eligible to report for absentee voting include ▲ people with severe physical disabilities who cannot move ▲ people staying in hospitals or nursing homes, or those detained or imprisoned in detention centers, prisons, or jails ▲ soldiers or police officers living for a long time inside bases or ships far from early voting stations and polling stations ▲ people living on remote islands as defined by the Central Election Commission regulations ▲ people hospitalized or quarantined at home or facilities due to infectious diseases such as COVID-19 under the Infectious Disease Control and Prevention Act.

However, if a person quarantined due to COVID-19 reports for absentee voting and completes treatment or quarantine is lifted before the absentee ballot is sent, the absentee ballot will not be sent.

Those who wish to report for absentee voting must fill out the report form and send it by mail or submit it directly to the district, city, or county office where their resident registration is located, or to the town, township office, or neighborhood community center.

The absentee voting report form must arrive by 6 p.m. on the 14th.

The absentee voting report form is available at nearby district, city, or county offices, town or township offices, and neighborhood community centers, and can also be downloaded from the Central Election Commission or local government websites.

The Gwangju Election Commission will conduct focused prevention and crackdown activities to eradicate illegal acts such as false absentee voting reports and proxy voting, and will conduct a full investigation of the received absentee voting reports. If illegal acts such as false reports are found, they will promptly and strictly take action after on-site verification and investigation.
