====Polls====
+

All polls open at 8:00AM and close at 7:00PM. The day is a National Holiday and everyone (minus emergency personnel and election workers) get the day off work. Voting is mandatory, and heavy fines for not voting are levied.
+
 
+
====Compulsory Voting====
+
 
+
Every citizen over the age of 16 is required to vote. Failure to do so results in a 100$ fine. Failure to pay this fine within 31 days of the election, a warrant for arrest is issued, and once arrested, the citizen is required to pay a fine 500$ plus costs.
+
 
+
====Voting Process====
+
 
+
Arriving at the polling station, the citizen produces a government issued ID and signs in. After signing, a ballot is given to the citizen, and directed to a voting booth. Inside the booth, the ballot is marked, using a pencil or black pen.
+
 
+
When the ballot is opened, the voter is presented with at least 3 options. First, the choice to directly elect a representive for the Assembly. Second, a choice for the political party of choice. And third, a choice for the Member of the Delegation.
+
 
+
The voter declares his or her intentions by marking an X clearly in the space beside their choice on the ballet.
