The National Coordinator for the Coalition of Domestic Election Observers (CODEO), Albert Kofi Arhin says with just two weeks to the general elections, the Electoral Commission has changed how elections are conducted.
According to him, the EC has learned from past mistakes and has improved upon its electoral operations.
“With two weeks to go, we have ballots ready with reservations to check whether there are issues that need to be rectified so we set them right before the d-day, this is a good omen," he said.
Speaking in an interview with JoyNews's Evans Mensah, he said the efforts put in by the Electoral Commission to train the huge number of polling staff ahead of the election is recommendable as it is ambitious.
"They are poised and want to really deliver.
"There are 38,000 polling stations so when you multiply that by 6 per center, then you know that there are a number of them to be trained.
“We at CODEO share in the joy of the EC, it is nice to know that two weeks to the elections and you have all sensitive materials ready to be dispatched to the various destinations," he said.
He urged Ghanaians to look forward to a free and fair election where rumours of double voting will not take root.
