Doha, November 05 (QNA) – Qatar News Agency (QNA) carried out a field tour through all the 28 referendum polling stations to cover the voting process on the draft constitutional amendments for the year 2024 to the Permanent Constitution of the State of Qatar.

QNA reported witnessing a remarkable patriotic atmosphere that reflects popular cohesion, highlighting the perceived general state of satisfaction with the high-level organization and coordination during the first hours of the voting process, in which a large number of citizens participated with a patriotic spirit that embodies the concept of citizenship and belonging, and represents an important stage in the country’s march and national unity.

The voting process will continue until 19:00 today, after which the designated referendum committees will start the process of counting and tallying the votes, and the General Referendum Committee will announce the results within 24 hours of the referendum’s conclusion.

The voting process of the referendum began on Tuesday morning through two methods. The first method is direct voting by casting a paper ballot or electronically using iPads, in which voters are required to attend in person at one of the announced polling stations and present their Qatari ID or Digital Qatar ID. The second method is remote voting using the “Metrash2” app, available for citizens both within and outside the country.
