EC secretary Datuk Abdul Ghani Salleh said in a statement that the exhibition would be held for 14 days, beginning May 9.
He said between January to March this year, the EC had received a total of 326,905 voter registration applications.
He added from the total, 242,691 applications were from newly registered voters while another 84,214 were applications to change their electoral address.
