Decided to cast my vote first thing in the morning when I woke up.
Headed down around 8.45AM armed with the polling card and my NRIC and proceeded to my assigned polling station a stone's throw away.
The entire process was very smooth and efficiently organised.
There was hardly a queue when I went. Upon handing over my polling card and my NRIC, the elections official checked my identity against the records.
The elections official looked suspiciously at me upon looking at my NRIC photo. Namely because the photo on the NRIC was taken 15 years ago when I was in P6. I wanted to asked if she would prefer to see my driver's license instead though I know the driver's license will not be accepted. I decided to keep my mouth shut and let them do their jobs. Thankfully, I wasn't required to sign a separate identity declaration form.
The ballot paper was handed to me folded. I proceeded to the booth and made my choice. It was a clear and simple one. Headed to drop my vote into the ballot box and left.
All done in less than 5 minutes.
It's amazing how fast and simple such a monumental task can be. Kudos to the Elections Department and the friendly elections officials.
And now we wait.
