SINGAPORE: Polls in Singapore's General Election, which were to close at 8pm, have been extended by two hours to 10pm.
"While the queue situation across most polling stations has improved, a small number continue to see long queues. This extension in hours will allow enough time for all voters to cast their votes," said the Elections Department on Friday evening (Jul 10).
