In a bid to ensure a high level of professionalism and to maintain global standards at all levels of the electoral process, the Electoral Commission yesterday, 15th November, 2024, took a decision to reprint ballot papers for the Ahafo and Volta Regions.
This was based on the Commission's own audit process instituted at all Printing Houses responsible for printing ballot papers for the 2024 elections.
Our audit revealed that the Printing House that was printing the ballots for Ahafo and Volta, had encountered a number of challenges.
While the printing of the ballots had gone on seamlessly, the serialisation which was supposed to be done through an automated system to provide serial numbers based on a sequence, had gaps.
