The Supplementary Electoral Rolls for January 2022 (DPT BLN1/2022) is open for review for 30 days until March 17 after being certified and gazetted yesterday.

Election Commission (EC) secretary Ikmalrudin Ishak (above) said it had prepared four methods of review for the electoral rolls namely the EC portal; MySPR Semak mobile application; the official portal of the state election offices and the EC hotline at 03-8892 7018.

"The DPT BLN1/2022 contains the names of 36,408 Malaysian citizens aged 18 years and above from Jan 1 to 31, 2022 who are automatically registered as new voters.

"The rolls also contain 8,579 registered voters who changed constituencies and 7,164 individuals who changed their voter status or category in the period from Jan 1 to 31, 2022," Ikmalrudin said in a statement yesterday.

As such, he called on citizens aged 18 and above, until Jan 31, 2022, and any registered voters who applied for a change in voting constituency or status to check their names in the DPT BLN1/2022.

According to Ikmalrudin, if they find their names not listed in the DPT BLN1/2022, they can fill out Form C online or go to the relevant state election office.

He said that any registered voter in a constituency who made a review and wished to object to the inclusion of the name of a voter who made a change to his constituency could fill in Form D and be present at the relevant state election office.

“Forms C and D can also be downloaded from the state election office portal and must be submitted to the relevant state election director during office hours on any working day during the DPT BLN1/2022 review period.

"For any inquiries on the DPT BLN1/2022 review, the public can browse the EC’s official portal or call the EC Hotline at 03-8892 7018 or any state election office," Ikmalrudin added.
