Early Voting Using Cousin's ID Occurs in Daegu

An incident occurred at a polling station in Daegu where early voting was conducted using a cousin's identification card, causing the rightful voter to miss their opportunity to cast a ballot.

While polling stations conduct ID checks and fingerprint recognition procedures, this is not a system directly linked to the resident registration system to definitively confirm a person's identity. According to an official, fingerprint recognition is used only to record voting participation.

This detail raises questions about the effectiveness of voter verification procedures.
