At the Inter-Party Advisory Committee (IPAC) meeting on Tuesday, October 1, held at the Alisa Hotel, Electoral Commission Chairperson Jean Mensa declared that the commission has mostly corrected inaccuracies in the voter registration.
Jean Mensa emphasized that the voter registration is not perfect and has some errors in response to concerns about it. Such errors, she admitted, are not unusual and usually result from the registration process.
“These errors are not unusual. All it takes are conscientious efforts to get them resolved,” she stated.
She gave political party representatives the assurance that the EC has already taken action to address the errors found since the voter registration was first made public.
“You will realize that the voters register for today is different from what was provided to the parties in August,” she explained.
Jean Mensa emphasized that the majority of the disparities found thus far have been fixed. She emphasized, “The register that we have today is different from what was given to the political parties in August,” and urged all interested parties to have faith in the commission’s work.
“We have a track record of delivering free and fair elections. Our staff are well trained, and we have what it takes to produce a credible register,” Jean Mensa added.
