According to the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC), voters need to be present at their registered voting stations unless they have applied for Section 24A.
This allows them to vote in a different area. Additionally, special votes could be applied for on the Monday and Tuesday preceding the election day. However, it appears that Jub Jub was either unaware of these stipulations or unable to meet them due to his busy schedule.
