The Electoral Commission (EC) has responded to public concerns regarding the timeline for ballot statistics in preparation for the 2024 Presidential and Parliamentary Elections.
In a recent statement, the EC clarified that while the printing of Notices of Poll for both elections will begin today, October 11, 2024, the actual printing of ballot papers has not yet started.
The Commission emphasized that ballot paper printing will only take place after ballot statistics are shared with candidates, political parties, and printing companies.
Reaffirming its commitment to transparency, the EC stated, “As has always been the case, we will provide ballot statistics to all candidates, political parties, and printing houses before the ballot papers are printed.
“We want to assure the public and all stakeholders that we are dedicated to conducting a transparent, credible, and fair election in December 2024.”
