      <title>Half of Pakistani population becomes eligible to vote</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/30334186/half-of-pakistani-population-becomes-eligible-to-vote</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Approximately 50% of Pakistanis are now eligible to vote in the upcoming general election, according to statistics issued by the Election Commission of Pakistan on Tuesday.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, the ECP shared a summary of registered voters which shows that more than 126.69 million Pakistanis will mark their fingerprints on ballot papers in polls.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    &lt;figure class='media  w-full  w-full  media--stretch  media--embed  media--uneven'&gt;
        &lt;div class='media__item  media__item--twitter  '&gt;&lt;span&gt;
    &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"&gt;
        &lt;a href="https://x.com/ECP_Pakistan/status/1703997055847588193?s"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
    &lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        
    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The data was categorized on the basis of gender indicating that 68.58 million men and 58.4 million women can cast their votes. This is about a 15% gap.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In Punjab, 723 million people can cast their vote, while the number of eligible voters in Sindh, KP, and Balochistan is 2.66 million, 2.16 million, and 5.84 million, respectively.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The number of registered voters in the federal capital is 1.41 million.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The total number of voters has increased by 4.7 million from 122.196 million last year.&lt;/p&gt;
