Deputy Director of Elections and IT of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Rashid Tanko-Computer has accused the Electoral Commission (EC) of failing to know basic arithmetic.

He statement comes after the electoral commission announced a rerun at abokobi Women’s Development Center 2 polling station in the Dome Kwabenya constituency.

This decision comes after the collation process for 367 polling stations concluded with discrepancies in three outstanding results.

Dr. Serebour Quaicoe, Director of Training at the EC, provided clarity on the situation:

“The report from the returning officers was that they have concluded collating 367 polling station results. They were left with three of the results, and the three results were brought later.

“The commission rejected one of them outrightly on the stance that it was declared on a wrong statement of poll because they used training sheets, which is not the one that they should use.

So the commission has rejected one, so we decided to come and add the two and see what happens.”

After incorporating the two valid results, the margin between the two leading candidates was just 165 votes.
However, the rejected result involved 669 voters.

If all those votes were allocated to the trailing candidate, they would surpass the leading candidate, prompting the EC’s decision to hold a rerun at that polling station.

Dr. Quaicoe confirmed the polling station in question: “The polling station’s name is Abokobi Women’s Development Centre 2.

We are sending our report to the commission, and then the commission will take the decision on when it should be done, but we are assured that it will be done before they are inaugurated.”

The rerun is critical to determining the final outcome of the Dome Kwabenya parliamentary race, where every vote holds significant weight.

Elikplim Akurugu of the NDC was earlier declared the winner of the parliamentary election in Dome Kwabenya flipping a seat that was considered safe for the NPP.

However, her victory was marred by irregularities and claims that some pink sheets were tampered with after some party supporters besieged the collation centre.
