NAUSORI villagers in Nalawa, Ra, turned up in numbers this morning to cast their votes again.

Village headman Poasa Rareba said he was happy to see people who were not able to turn up on Wednesday cast their vote today.

“There was a lot of rain on Wednesday and a lot of bridges were flooded,” he said.

“But the weather today is in our favour and I see a lot more people coming to vote.”

He said out of the 212 voters registered at the Nausori Community Hall polling venue, only 149 turned up on Elections Day.

He said he hoped that the number would increase this time around.
