The Elections Commission has decided not to open polling stations in Singapore, New Delhi and nine resorts.
Fewer than 200 people registered to vote in Singapore and New Delhi, the EC announced Saturday, which was the threshold for setting up overseas polling stations.
At least 100 resort workers were required to register to keep a ballot box on resort islands.
But fewer than 100 did for Adaaran Select Hudhuranfushi (Kaafu Atoll), Vakkaru Maldives (Baa Atoll), Amilla Fushi and Coastline Residence (Baa), Atmosphere Kanifushi (Lhaviyani Atoll), Cocoon Maldives (Lhaviyani), Constance Halaveli (Alif Alif Atoll), Amari Havodda (Gaaf Dhaal Atoll), Kanuhuraa (Lhaviyani), and Robinson Club (Noonu Atoll).
