The Electoral Commission (EC) has suspended the re-declaration of parliamentary results for the Dome Kwabenya and Ablekuma North constituencies due to missing hard copies of pink sheets.
According to Returning Officer James Coffie, the EC has been relying on soft copies from presiding officers, as both the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) failed to provide hard copies.
“We needed hard copies to cross-check figures, but the parties don’t have them either,” Coffie explained.
The EC has paused the process to investigate further, with its Management expected to make a final decision on the matter, according to Benjamin Bannor Bio, Director of Electoral Services.
