Elections are won at the polling station, as declared by Papa Afari Gyan.
This assertion still remains relevant in the knowledge of elections in Ghana, and people who have either followed, observed or participated actively in the management of elections on behalf of political parties, can attest to the fact that, elections are won at the polling station statement, is an undisputable truth.
The 2024 National Elections will be won at the polling stations, and all must keep their eyes on the price.
The role and responsibility of polling station officers, agents and units, will have to be prudent, extra vigilant, and ensure the collated polling station Election Results gets to the designated collation centers on time, and intact.
The Elctoral Commission (the national election returning officer) should, and must endeavour to declare National Collated election results from the various designated collation centers without any complexities, and unnecessary stress.
Issues of discrepancies | inconsistencies can always be resolved at the polling stations, and at the collation centers, without any wahala stressful situations of delays, acrimoniousity, and deliberate disregard to procedural etiquette.
Frankly,
Let’s win at the polling stations, work hard to secure the election results at the collation centers, and pray for smooth Internet connectivity on election D-Day.
