If none of the 12 presidential candidates secures the required 50%+1 majority in the December 7, 2024, election, the Electoral Commission (EC) will likely organize a runoff on December 28, 2024.
This contingency aligns with Ghana's constitutional requirement to ensure that a president is elected by an absolute majority.
A runoff election occurs when no presidential candidate secures the required majority of votes in the initial round.
The potential runoff will be a decisive face-off between the two candidates with the highest number of votes in the first round.
