"Even in the invitation, the hours of each voter will be included. It is hoped that there will not be a buildup of people. But if there is something that does not match the hour, they will still be served. We also provide gloves when at the location and also the ballpoint pen that has been prepared," he said as quoted by Antara. , Tuesday, November 24.
