Regional breakdown of the registered voters
Regional breakdown of the registered voters: Electoral Commission has through its interactive session given a fair idea of the number of persons registered on the new voter roll ahead of the 2020 election on December 7.
The numbers, however, are provisional pending deduplication and adjudication which according to the EC chairperson will lead to a drastic drop in the numbers.
“The process of deduplication and adjudication, which are currently going will flag multiple registrations in the system,” she said.
“Additionally, the challenge system put in place during the registration and exhibition exercise will further flag unqualified voters on the register,” Jean Mensa noted further
According to the Electoral Commission, a total of 16,963,306 persons have been registered and this number includes the 30,814 persons registered during the two-day mop-up registration exercise organised over the weekend.
Greater Accra Region leads in the number of people registered on the electoral roll for the impending elections followed by the Ashanti and Eastern regions.
