Dec. 7 polls: PVR's been 'rigorously cleaned' – EC responds to NDC's forensic audit petition

The Jean Mensa-led Electoral Commission (EC) has responded to the National Democratic Congress's (NDC) petition for a forensic audit of the voters register for the 2024 general elections.
The John Mahama-led NDC embarked on a nationwide Enough is Enough demonstration on September 17, and presented the said petition to the EC.
“The crux of your petition is that the discrepancies you have discovered in the Provisional Voters Register (PVR) make it unfit for the 2024 General Election and, therefore, you propose that it should be subjected to a forensic audit,” the EC said in a September 26 statement.
The EC told the NDC, “It is important to emphasise that the register in question is a provisional register generated immediately after the registration of voters. It is a draft register. It is not the final register.”
By law, the EC continued, it was enjoined “to display the PVR at all polling stations (exhibition centres) nationwide to allow for an inspection and revision and correction where necessary”.
The EC asserted they had “cleaned” the PVR by a “rigorous” four-step process, which was explained in the statement address specifically to the NDC's National Chairman, Mr John Asiedu Nketia.
