The Electoral Commission (EC) has announced its decision to announce presidential results in the upcoming 2024 presidential election at Regional Collation Centres before the national declaration at its headquarters.
This was disclosed by the Deputy Chairperson of the EC in charge of Corporate Services, Dr. Eric Bossman Asare.
He explained that the new move forms part of efforts by the EC to deepen transparency.
Dr. Bossman Asare noted that all the political parties have agreed to this new initiative.
“For every constituency, there will be someone assisting with the collation process, and the same applies at the regional level. Under CI 127, regional collation is part of the structure for presidential elections.”
“After results are compiled at polling stations, they will be sent to constituency collation centres, and from there, forwarded to the regional collation centres. At each regional centre, we will announce the presidential results,” he said on Thursday, October 17, 2024.
