The Electoral Commission (EC) has announced that it is not considering an immediate re-run of the 2024 parliamentary election in the Ablekuma North constituency, noting that results from three remaining polling stations are yet to be collated.
The delay in completing the collation process is due to the Ghana Police Service awaiting legal guidance from the Attorney General’s Department regarding appropriate security measures for the exercise.
Addressing Parliament on Thursday, June 19, the EC’s Deputy Chairperson for Corporate Affairs, Dr. Bossman Asare, emphasized that a re-run remains a last resort.
“We haven’t reached a point where we can declare the results unavailable,” he said. “Only when all efforts to retrieve and collate the results fail would a re-run be considered.”
Dr. Asare also revealed that the Electoral Commission spent GHS 3.6 million to reprint presidential ballots and GHS 2.4 million on parliamentary ballots for the Eastern and Western Regions during the 2024 elections.
