The Junta Central Electoral ruled that the identity and voting cards to be issued as of now are to be valid for 10 years. The JCE also ruled that youths registering for the ID card before their 18th birthday will be issued the card with the same number as the definite card they will be issued once they are 18. The first voting card that is issued to those that will not be of voting age for the next municipal, congressional or presidential election will be of a different color and will read in Spanish, "DOES NOT VOTE."
