If a copy of the list is not available at the polling booth what task may officials find difficult?

Correct answer: Matching voter eligibility and name

Direct answer: A is correct. The electoral roll is the official list of registered voters for an area. At the polling booth, officials use it to check whether a person’s name is recorded and whether that person is entitled to vote there. Without a copy, they would find it difficult to match the voter’s name and eligibility with the official record. This may cause delay, confusion or wrongful exclusion. B is unrelated because officials do not write campaign speeches at the booth. C is a separate boundary-making task, not a polling-booth task. D concerns election arrangements and is not decided by checking an individual voter. Memory cue: at the booth, the roll answers “Is this voter listed here?”
