The Electoral Commission (EC) has addressed concerns circulating in the public domain regarding the provision of ballot statistics ahead of the printing process for the 2024 Presidential and Parliamentary Elections.
In response, the Commission assured the public that the printing of ballot papers has not yet commenced.
According to a statement from the EC, the printing of Notices of Poll for both the presidential and parliamentary elections is scheduled to begin on Friday, October 11, 2024.
However, the actual printing of ballot papers will only commence after the Commission provides ballot statistics to all candidates, political parties, and printing houses.
The EC reiterated that it remains committed to transparency, stating, “As has always been the case, the Commission will provide ballot statistics to the Candidates / Political Parties and all Printing Houses before the printing of ballot papers starts.
“Printing of ballot papers will only commence after ballot statistics have been provided to all Stakeholders. The Commission will not depart from this practice.
“We urge the Public and all Stakeholders to trust the Electoral Commission to deliver a transparent, credible, free and fair election in December 2024.”
