After the election, 'accelerate' the implementation of resolutions.

On the afternoon of April 7th, the Can Tho City Election Committee held a conference to summarize the work of the election of deputies to the 16th National Assembly and deputies to the People's Councils at all levels for the 2026-2031 term.

Mr. Dong Van Thanh, Member of the Central Committee of the Party, Standing Deputy Secretary of the City Party Committee, Chairman of the People's Council of Can Tho City, and Chairman of the City Election Committee, delivered a speech giving directions.

The conference aimed to comprehensively assess the achievements, identify limitations and difficulties, and draw lessons learned from the process of organizing and conducting the election in the area.

At the conference, Mr. Dong Van Thanh, Member of the Central Committee of the Party, Standing Deputy Secretary of the City Party Committee, Chairman of the People's Council, and Chairman of the Election Committee of Can Tho City, acknowledged and praised the efforts of all cadres, Party members, armed forces, and voters of the city who contributed to the overall success of the election.

According to the Chairman of the City Election Committee, the success of the election stemmed from the close leadership of the Central Committee and the City Party Committee, along with scientific coordination among all levels and sectors. In particular, this time the Standing Committee of the City Party Committee assigned approximately 140 deputy heads of city departments and agencies to directly support polling stations in residential areas, contributing significantly to monitoring the situation and providing timely guidance at the grassroots level.

Regarding the difficulties, Mr. Dong Van Thanh frankly pointed out the two biggest problems: population fluctuations in densely populated central areas and the high percentage of people working far from home in rural areas (20-25%), causing confusion in compiling voter lists. Based on this practical experience, he shared his expertise on using data from previous terms combined with police population data for cross-referencing, helping to accurately identify the identity and residence of voters, thereby resolving difficulties for polling stations in hamlets and areas.

Looking ahead, Mr. Dong Van Thanh requested that the People's Councils and People's Committees at all levels immediately begin consolidating their organizational structures and implementing action programs to put the Party's Resolution into practice. The central task is to strive for an economic growth rate of 10% in 2026, as targeted by the Central Government. Election organizing bodies must promptly complete archiving and financial settlements in accordance with the law, avoiding delays that could negatively impact the city's overall achievements.

The Chairman of the People's Committee of Can Tho City awarded Certificates of Commendation to individuals who achieved outstanding results in the election process.

Ms. Ma Thi Tuoi, Standing Committee Member of the City Party Committee, Permanent Vice Chairwoman of the City People's Council, and Vice Chairwoman of the Can Tho City Election Committee, stated that preparations have been carried out systematically with the timely issuance of directives and leadership plans since October 2025. The entire city has established the City Election Committee along with 103 commune-level Election Committees, 6 National Assembly election boards, 28 City People's Council election boards, 665 commune-level People's Council election boards, and 2,597 polling stations.

Personnel work was meticulously and carefully prepared, linked to the restructuring and streamlining of the apparatus according to the personnel plan for the Party Congresses at all levels for the 2025-2030 term. Through three rounds of consultations, the official list of candidates ensures a balanced structure in terms of the proportion of women, non-Party members, young people, re-elected members, and ethnic minorities, meeting or exceeding the regulations.

Ms. Ma Thi Tuoi emphasized that a highlight of this election was the strong application of information technology and digital transformation in propaganda. The city built a dedicated election page on the Can Tho Smart App, applied a GIS digital map system to serve election information, and organized an online contest "Understanding the Election Law" which attracted more than 64,400 participants...

The Chairman of the People's Committee of Can Tho City awarded Certificates of Commendation to collectives with outstanding achievements in election work.

As of 7:00 AM on March 15, 2026, the entire city had 2,877,389 registered voters. At the end of the election day, the voter turnout rate reached 99.88%.
