As citizens nationwide headed to the polls to elect deputies to the National Assembly and People’s Councils at all levels, reporters from press agencies were present at numerous polling stations across the country, capturing the solemn and festive atmosphere of the nation’s election day.

In recent days, many streets and headquarters of agencies and offices in Ho Chi Minh City have been brightly decorated with national flags, banners, panels and posters welcoming the election of deputies to the 16th National Assembly and People’s Councils at all levels for the 2026–2031 term.

Ahead of the national election scheduled for March 15, the atmosphere at many locations has been lively, democratic and responsible. Meetings and voter engagement sessions have been widely held across residential areas and institutions. For many young people who have just turned 18, this will be the first time they hold a ballot in their hands—an experience filled with both pride and responsibility.

On the morning of March 14, Polling Station 14 (Truong Sa Island, Khanh Hoa Province) conducted a final inspection of preparations for the elections of the 16th National Assembly and the People’s Councils at all levels for the 2026-2031 term.
