Second phase of voter registration is here!

By Burnett Munthali

The Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) has officially launched the second phase of voter registration, calling on all eligible Malawians to seize this opportunity to register for the upcoming 2025 General Election. As the country moves closer to this critical election, MEC is stressing the importance of participating in this process to ensure that every citizen’s voice is represented.

Through this registration drive, MEC is making a renewed effort to encourage citizens in various districts to participate in the democratic process. “Don’t miss the chance to have your say in 2025,” MEC representatives urged in a recent statement. The voter registration is not only essential for voting in the general elections but also serves as a critical step for individuals looking to take part in local and regional elections.

Citizens are encouraged to verify their designated registration centers and make necessary arrangements to visit these locations. MEC has made it easy to locate registration centers by providing an online tool for checking registered areas. Simply visit www.mec.org.mw/regcentres/ to find the center nearest to you.

With a history of active civic participation, Malawians are well aware of the impact of their vote in shaping the nation’s leadership and policy direction. However, MEC emphasizes that this influence can only be exercised if every eligible voter completes their registration. By ensuring their names are on the voter roll, citizens are guaranteed the right to participate fully in the 2025 General Election.

MEC has also placed a special focus on encouraging youth and first-time voters to register. Young Malawians, who make up a large portion of the population, are crucial to the electoral process and to the future of Malawi’s leadership. MEC is reaching out to schools, universities, and community centers to raise awareness among young people and encourage them to be a part of the election.

MEC’s voter registration drive is a key step toward ensuring that every eligible Malawian has the opportunity to participate in building the nation’s democratic future. Don’t let this opportunity pass by—register today and make sure your voice is heard in 2025!
