SINGAPORE, May 3 (Bernama) — Polling stations across Singapore opened at 8 am on Saturday as more than 2.75 million eligible voters began casting their votes in the country’s general election (GE2025).

A total of 1,240 polling stations are operating nationwide and will close at 8 pm.

Voting is mandatory in Singapore.

The Elections Department (ELD) had encouraged voters to consider heading to the polls in the afternoon to avoid long queues in the morning.

In addition to domestic voting, 10 overseas polling stations are operating from 8 am to 8 pm local time in their respective cities.

These stations must close no later than the official closing time in Singapore.

The overseas polling stations are located in Dubai, London, Washington D.C., New York, San Francisco, Canberra, Tokyo, Beijing, Hong Kong, and Shanghai.

A total of 18,389 Singaporeans had registered as overseas voters — 8,630 will vote in person at overseas stations, while 9,759 will cast their ballots by post.

Voters are choosing from 11 political parties and two independent candidates to contest the remaining 92 parliamentary seats across 32 constituencies after the People’s Action Party (PAP) secured five seats uncontested on nomination day.

PAP is fielding candidates in all constituencies, while the Workers’ Party (WP) has the most significant number of opposition candidates with 26.

Five constituencies are involved in multi-cornered fights, with Tampines GRC seeing the most intense battle — a four-way contest between the PAP, WP, People’s Power Party (PPP), and National Solidarity Party (NSP).
