The Independent High Electoral Commission announced that polling staff rewards will be released starting Tuesday in three Iraqi provinces, as part of its approved schedule to settle election-related payments.<\/p>\n
The commission confirmed that the payments will cover Basra, Duhok, and Maysan, while preparations continue to release rewards in the remaining provinces in stages.<\/p>\n
The move follows the completion of most MasterCard distribution procedures, carried out in coordination with Rafidain Bank.<\/p>\n
Commission spokesperson Jumana al-Ghalai said the electoral administration, through the administrative and financial department, has credited MasterCard cards with funds allocated for polling staff rewards in the three provinces.<\/p>\n
She stated that the payment process will officially begin on Tuesday, in accordance with procedures designed to ensure all eligible staff receive their entitlements.<\/p>\n
According to the commission, rewards will be distributed as follows:<\/p>\n
Basra Province:<\/p>\n
76 registration centers
\nMaysan and Duhok Provinces:<\/p>\n
41 registration centers in each province<\/p>\n
Polling staff were advised to visit their designated registration centers to collect their MasterCard cards.<\/p>\n
The commission confirmed it is continuing coordination with Rafidain Bank to complete the distribution of remaining MasterCard cards to provincial election offices.<\/p>\n
It noted that card distribution has reached approximately 90 percent nationwide, with financial credits to be issued sequentially once administrative procedures are finalized.<\/p>\n
Special voting for the Iraqi parliamentary elections was held on November 9, 2025, followed by general voting on November 11.<\/p>\n
The elections covered 18 electoral districts, with 8,703 polling centers and a total of 39,258 polling stations across all Iraqi provinces.<\/p>\n
The launch of polling staff rewards reflects the commission\u2019s commitment to meeting its financial obligations to election workers, with full nationwide coverage expected in the coming period.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
