    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the problem would be that if we were to take this amendment and it was returned to this House--- We have no time and do not wish that any technicality should arise. The argument being made is that if you have notified the Registrar that you wish to take an identity card and you have been issued with a waiting card--- That in itself is not an identity card. It may very well turn out that the Registrar may decline to register you for one of several reasons, including his having found out that you were, otherwise, not qualified to be a registered Kenyan, either because you are a refugee or otherwise. So, to make that document a basis of voting would open a possibility of fraud. What we are trying to avoid here is fraud. So, what I would recommend is that we reopen it to that small extent that says that you will use this to register, but not vote. We will give you the days between registration and voting to get your real identity card. I know that---"
