Voters Registration Booth

Voters Registration Booth by Rudy Girón

This is an election year in Guatemala and the Tribunal Supremo Electoral (TSE) is rushing to get all potential voters registered and updated. This election year there will be an overlap on the national identification documents that will be allowed to use: The old, retired cédula and the spanking brand-new DPI (Documento Persona de Identificación). The booth above is located right in front of the Municipalidad (City Hall).
