Why is an identity card useful even when the name is in the voters’ list?

Correct answer: To correctly prove the voter’s identity

Correct answer: A — an identity card helps election staff verify that the person who has come to vote is the person associated with the enrolled record. The voters’ list answers one question: is the person’s name registered in this constituency? An identity document helps answer another question: does the person’s identity match the voter record? These checks help reduce impersonation and support an orderly polling process, although the exact documents and procedures are governed by election rules. Option B is unrelated because an identity card does not remove candidates. Option C concerns constituency boundaries, which are not changed at the polling desk. Option D concerns a policy of representation and is not the function of an identity document. Memory cue: the list confirms enrolment; identity proof confirms the person.
