The process of voting in the PS could benefit by a simplification of certain election day procedures. For example, the ballot papers need not be hand-counted before the opening of the PSs, so as to avoid their late opening. PSCs should not be required to retain the observer IDs, as these results in additional and unnecessary administrative hassle.
