Columnist Zaid Ash-Shami says in an article voter registering is a right of citizens who are legally eligible to register their names in their hometowns or where they live or where the place where they work. It should also be known that political differences do not contradict giving this right and all have to get used to respecting the laws.

Despite of the objections expressed by the opposition parties on performance of the Supreme Commission for Elections, it does not mean the citizen gives up his constitutional right to make the political life. The citizen is partner in authority and wealth. As much as he is asked to bear woes and disasters he must take part in the decision directly or indirectly, as stipulated in the constitution and the law.

It is no secret that from its beginning, the electoral process is associated with means of tricks and the use of authority and the people's potentials in favor of the ruling party in a way led to prevalence of corruption and tyranny. Nevertheless, the resisting of violations and disclosure of mistakes and the use of legal ways to prevent this deviation is a legal duty of the political forces and with them the citizen.
