Less than half of registered voters voted in the November 2003 elections. As with the eligible residents who register, the percentage of registered citizens who vote is strongly affected by whether there is a presidential election and, secondly, by whether there are mayoral and congressional elections. In the presidential election of 2000, 67% of registered voters voted. Sixty-two percent voted in the previous presidential election in 1996, compared to just 30% in 2001 and 1997.
