Accordingly, four areas in Tam Thang and Phuoc Thang wards and Long Son Commune in the city will hold early voting on February 26.
Director of the municipal Department of Internal Affairs Pham Thi Thanh Hien said that owing to prolonged maritime assignments, including executing patrol and surveillance orders and carrying out duties aboard ships and offshore facilities, many personnel are unable to return to the mainland to vote on March 15. Therefore, the city is organizing early voting for nearly 4,500 voters from units such as Naval Region 2 Command, the Ho Chi Minh City High Command, Naval Flotilla 128 and 129, Coast Guard Region 3 Command, Fisheries Surveillance Squadron No. 2, Brigade 125, DK1 Battalion and the Vietsovpetro joint venture.
These voters will cast their ballots on February 26, 17 days ahead of schedule.
Across the four polling areas, preparations have been carried out proactively and meticulously in terms of voter lists and election personnel, facilities and contingency plans, ensuring that every voter can fully exercise their civic rights despite special working conditions.
