Your voice matters.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Phase One The Commission in its statement also reports that the just-ended Biometric Voter Registration exercise in Phase One was very successful because you, Liberians 18 years and above, turned out in great numbers and were registered even with the initial glitches, technical problems, and filed challenges, which the Commission\u2019s Technical and Administrative Teams resolved on-site.<a name=\"aswift_4_host\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Commission extends thanks to all temporary staff for their commitment and dedicated services during the Biometric Voter Registration, as well as the Commission extends appreciation to all Liberians in general, stakeholders and actors, and the international and regional communities for their numerous field observations and feedback to the Commission on the BVR process.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOwners of facilities used as Registration Centers, the NEC says thank you for your patriotism, and that the Commission looks forward to this high-level cooperation on your part for the pending general Elections in October this year.<\/p>\n<p>The National Elections Commission also says it appreciates the role of the Joint Security in responding and maintaining the peace, which allowed the BVR process to proceed in congested communities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Commission thanks the government for its continuing strives to fund the Voter Registration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Commission in the statement also extends appreciation to the Ministry of Internal Affairs for local government support to field staff deployed, and in many cases, accommodation in the 6 counties of Phase One.
