Monrovia - Commissioner Sarah Toe of the National Elections Commission (NEC) is recommending the used of the tactile ballot for the conduct of all presidential and legislative elections. This, according to Commissioner Toe, could reduce the huge number of invalid ballots during elections. A tactile voting device is a device to enable a visually impaired person to mark a ballot paper in secret. Commissioner Toe said, in Liberia, a nation with high level of illiteracy, the Elections Commission spends more time on civic voters education. “I feel it is convenient and it will work very well for every one of us because it will cut very well on the invalid ballot”.
