Go get registered and have voter cards, and on election day, vote for this government so we can continue working until 2031,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Responding to concerns from some villagers about the distance to their polling stations, the president reminded them that elections occur only once every five years. He urged them to make the necessary effort, noting that many Gambians abroad travel long distances to register and vote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople come all the way from America to get voter cards, go back, and return again during elections to vote. For you, your polling station is at the corner of your village, and you say it is far,\u201d Barrow remarked.<\/p>\n<p>President Barrow emphasized that voter cards represent citizens\u2019 power and civic voice, describing them as \u201ctheir bullets\u201d in a democratic process.
