The presidential elections will be held on Sunday from 7 a.m. till 9 p.m. If none of the district electoral commissions extends the voting, the silence will end at 9 p.m. on Sunday. 

Voting can be extended as a result of exceptional circumstances such as a polling station being inundated, or a building or communication disaster. (PAP)
