Mohammad Khair Al-Rawashdeh, spokesperson for the Independent Election Commission (IEC), confirmed that voting began exactly at 7:00 AM with no reported delays.

In a press conference on Tuesday morning, Rawashdeh announced a violation early today in the Irbid First District, resulting in eight individuals being referred to the public prosecutor for negligence.

He also reported that security forces alerted the IEC to an attempt to tamper with ballots in the Ma'an electoral district, leading to a legal investigation into the presence of sealed and unsigned ballots found on a Ma'an street.

Moreover, Rawashdeh added that the total number of voters so far is around 58,800, including approximately 6,000 involved in the electoral process.
