The race for the Dome Kwabenya constituency has taken an unexpected turn with the announcement of a rerun at the Abokobi Women's Development Centre 2 polling station.
The Electoral Commission (EC) made this decision after the initial results were annulled due to a breach of electoral regulations.
The rerun is set to decide the winner between Mike Oquaye Junior of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and Faustina Elikplim Akurugu of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
During a live broadcast on TV3, the EC confirmed that the rerun would be confined to this specific polling station, which has 669,000 registered voters-an electorate that could significantly impact the outcome. "The margin between the two candidates following the recount stands at just 165 votes," the EC announced, making it clear that the stakes are high for both parties.
