The Electoral Commission (EC) will commence a voter transfer exercise from the 20th of October to the 26th of October 2020 subject to the maturation of the Public Election Regulations 2020 (C.I. 127).
The Majority Leader in parliament, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu disclosed on Citi News interview said the C.I.94 will be amended to that effect.
“In the original statutes, voters’ cannot transfer their votes within 12 months leading to elections. That’s the statutes but this year, after they the Commission finished the compilation of the register, it is left with less than six months to the elections.”
“So strictly and technically if you want to transfer, you may not be able to transfer and yet for the students, in particular, we may have to make provision for them which will mean an amendment of C.I. 94.”
