Hundreds of Names Deleted from Voter List in Sangkat Boeng Tumpun
On 26 July 2008, official NEC voter lists were pinned up at polling stations for the 27 July election. At the Sangkat Boeng Tumpun polling station in Meanchey district, hundreds of registered voters could not find their names on the list. In most cases, only one person out of an entire family was listed. Some of these families should have had six or seven registered voters. Of those who were left off the list, most had the appropriate documentation in hand to prove it.
Many of these people had discovered several months earlier that their names were not on the voter list. Then, they complained to the electoral officials who reassured them, but today they discover that their names are still missing from the voter list. At the polling station, the deleted voters had no recourse as no officials were present.
