Evans Nimako, the Director of Elections for the (NPP), firmly rejected claims that the party's presidential candidate might consider swapping ballot positions on Newsfile on JoyNews. "Presidential candidate for a political party loves the (NPP), our presidential candidate so much that when he had balloted for his position, he would swap?
I think we must throw that issue into the marine," he stated emphatically.
Most people firmly believe the position of presidential candidates on the ballot paper is significant in elections in Ghana.
Research and past elections have shown that the placement of candidates can influence voter behaviour.
Candidates who appear at the top of the ballot are often perceived as more favourable, which can lead to a higher likelihood of receiving votes.
