SPECIAL VOTING ISSUES
The Electoral Commission wishes to assure members of the security agencies and the general public that we are fully aware of the challenges some of them are facing at the various polling stations with the special voters list.
This was discussed with the Presidential candidates and their running mates this morning at a Presidential dialogue organized by the Commission on the elections held at the Movepick Ambassador Hotel in Accra.
The Commission is working with the hierarchy of the security agencies to resolve the challenge as soon as possible.
We urge the security personnel affected to remain calm.
Appropriate arrangements will be made for them all to vote in this year's elections.
Thank you
Signed:
Eric Kofi Dzakpasu
Head of Commissions

Wab)n Madam. The EC woman doesnt listen to advice at all. We said this from the begining. The Register ur predecessor used and encoured problem u still want to use it. Ad3n na waso 3d3n saaa. nk)fa nt)kwa biaa mma Ghana
This is monumental failure on the part of the EC. Shame on EC! Shame on Charlotte Osei! Disgraceful!
THIS KOFI DZAKPASU IS AN GUY WORKING FOR JON MAHAMA AND THE NDC : HE IS AS INCOMPTENTENT AND AN ARROGANT EDIOT FULL WHO IS PURSUING AN EVIL AGENDA TO RIG THE ELECTIONS FOR JON MAHAMA : MRS OSEI THE CHAIR IS NOT WORKING ALONE : IT IS A RACKET BY THESE PEOPLE : THE QUESTION IS WHY SUCH TEETHING PROBLEMS : THESE PROBLEMS NEVER AROSE DURING AFAR-GYANS TIME : SO WHY SUDDENLY ALL THESE CHOAS BECAUSE OF FRAUD ;IMCOMPETENCE; ARROGANCE AND SERIOUS 'NOKOFIO' THIS JON MAHAMA's LEGACY !!!!!!!!
WHY WOULDN'T EC BE POMPOUS WHEN NDC WAS DEFENDING EVERY MISTAKE AND INACTION OF THE COMMISSION? NOW LOOK AT THE MESS?
This simple compilation the ec can't make..what a disgrace. so pompous .fuuuulish evil ***barred word***.
Better DO.
For the last six elections we did not witness any such discrepancies in the special voting exercise but under an incompetent and arrogant Charlotte Osei we are seeing this for the first time in our electioneering history. What a waste of resources? The EC has now been seen to be doing the bidding of the NDC. How can you resolve crisis at this crucial hour when the Special voting is ending in just ten minutes from now? Charlotte you have really proven your uselessness at the position you are holding. The saddest day for Ghana's democracy.
COMING EVENTS CAST THEIR SHADOWS. I SMELL MANY VOTING ISSUES AHEAD DEC 7TH.EC PLS DON'T PLUNG THIS BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY INTO CHAOS
This Commission is as ***barred word*** as the word itself. Do they want to throw the country into chaos. Some of us do not have the capacity to run to another region how much more another country.This is unacceptable. The Commission has done anything right for the first time. We are fed up with this 'try and fix' situation
Hope you're seeing where your intransigence has led this country. Such an incompetentt and arrogant woman heading an important institution like EC is unfortunate
