A new X-stamp will also be introduced at the upcoming Presidential Election.
ELD also gave more details about the postal voting process for overseas Singaporeans, which will be used for the first time if the election is contested.
The law was recently amended so that Singaporeans can qualify for overseas voting as long as they have resided in Singapore for the minimum period in the three years preceding the date of registration to be an overseas voter. Previously, they would have to meet this requirement by the date of the revision of the Registers of Electors, which is Jun 1.
ELD demonstrates a machine that will sort return envelopes to match the signature with one submitted by the voter during registration. Postal voters should also mail in their ballots early, said ELD, as some envelopes took more than 10 days to reach Singapore.
