Voter ID Renewals Surge Past 29,000 as Election Activity Intensifies
More than 29,000 voter ID card transactions have been recorded so far this year, according to the latest data from the Antigua and Barbuda Electoral Commission (ABEC), as activity continues to climb ahead of the general election.
The commission’s cumulative report shows a monthly total of 29,868 transactions, including both new applications and replacements processed up to mid-April.
The figures reflect sustained demand across constituencies, with several areas already posting high completion rates. St Peter leads the country with 88 percent completion, followed by St Philip North at 75 percent and Barbuda at 76 percent, indicating strong voter readiness in those districts.
In contrast, more densely populated constituencies such as St John’s Rural West and All Saints West have recorded larger volumes overall, with totals of 2,534 and 2,616 applications respectively, though their completion percentages remain lower, suggesting continued processing demand.
A separate weekly report covering April 12–18 shows a surge in activity, with 2,546 replacement applications processed during the week alone, alongside 323 new applications.
Daily figures reveal the highest spike early in the week, with 793 applications on April 13, before gradually tapering to 441 by April 16, pointing to a rush of last-minute renewals following recent election signals.
Across constituencies, All Saints West, St George, and St Mary’s North recorded some of the highest weekly totals, highlighting continued strong turnout in key battleground areas.
The data underscores a nationwide push by voters to update or replace identification cards, a required step for participation in the upcoming polls.
