The Electoral Commission (EC) is set to conduct elections today, Thursday, December 21, in district assemblies where polls were postponed.
40 districts in the Ashanti and Eastern Regions experienced challenges, including errors on ballot papers, delays in distributing voting materials, and non-functioning Biometric Verification Devices (BVD).
Following this, the Coalition of District Election Observers expressed disappointment in the EC for failing to ensure the smooth and efficient conduct of the District Level Elections.
CODEO explained that there were technical difficulties with the ballot machines and problems with the printing of ballot papers particularly in the Ashanti and Eastern region which led to the postponement of the elections.
CODEO criticised the (EC)for not meeting expectations and called on the commission to improve its performance.
