The man canβt comply if he canβt count.
LOL, The RO has the direction to restart or continue the tabulation but GECOM has the ultimate discretion on who can be in the room during the count.
It still not over until all the ballots are counted of region 4. but it's a small victory, let's see tomorrow 11.30pm,

That's a small compromise , all parties can have their observers of that region. It is still a victory for the opposition, that is what they wanted all the way.
@Rochelle: The RO has the direction to restart or continue the tabulation but GECOM has the ultimate discretion on who can be in the room during the count.
Does the above mean that the PNC ROs can bully the other parties and not allow any opposition members to witness the count? Are you again advocating fraud and crookedness on the side of YOUR PNC?
As for lawyers, you get what you pay. The Trini run circles around Boston.
LIVE: Chief Justice rules declaration for Region Four was unlawful
Acting Chief Justice Roxane George-Wiltshire today ruled that there had been substantial non-compliance by the Returning Officer for Region Four Clairmont Mingo in his purported declaration of of results for Region Four and the results are therefore null and void and vacated.
Listen below.
She also ordered that the Guyana Elections Commission cannot declare a final result until the declaration for Region Four is properly done.
She ruled that the process required for the declaration should begin by tomorrow at 11 am.
The CJβs ruling would be seen as a major victory for the opposition but questions still remain as to what process will now be followed by Mingo to satisfy concerns about an accurate declaration for Region Four . Region Four is pivotal to the final outcome of the elections.
Acting Chief Justice Roxane George-Wiltshire delivers her ruling on the case seeking full verification of the vote count for Region Four at last Mondayβs general and regional elections.
Responses Following the Chief Justiceβs Ruling:
@kp: Bai, I would not have this old imbecile Neil Boston represent me in a traffic court. Just imagine the magistrate sentences someone to 3 months in jail and Boston shouts, "no your honor, give him 9 mos". If someone is assigned Boston as a public defender, he or she should tell the judge/magistrate that he or she does not want a trial. Send him/her to jail. Eliminate the stress, cruel and inhumane punishment.
Leave Mr. Boston alone.
The Chief Justice should charge Boston for in contempt of court. He was ill equipped and unprepared to handle a case of this nature. The PNC deserved better, Moses or Rumjaat could have done better. but nah PNC put a dunce.
@Chief: The man is a classic. When I listened to this guy yesterday, I was wondering why the PNC appointed this man to defend them. As soon as he started his incoherent and meandering argument, I said this dude did not prepare for this case. He kark duck. He should really retire and enjoy life.
I am not celebrating yet. Expect more PNC conundrums to disrupt the political process. They are not accepting the loss of the election easily.
Is GECOM really an independent body, the chair and CEO are PNC hacks?
While this is a victory for democracy, GECOM is not impartial. It would help if Singh steps up and enforced her role as Chairman. Lowenfield and Mingo are still PNC hacks. This is not over yet.
The Opposition's rejection of Mingo's unverified declaration is vindicated.
This the time for the international community to step up the pressure to ensure that GECOM acts impartially and demand transparency. This is not over yet.
GECOM should invite all the foreign observers to witness the verification , just for transparency.
Watch Singh disappear again tomorrow. Mingo will complain that he goadie hurting he tomorrow and Lowenfield will call in the police again. Lots of fireworks tomorrow at Gecom.
Ray will be busy again parting big big fights tomorrow.
Thank God that we donβt have DJ around tomorrow to delete PPP members posts.

The Chief Justice also held that any acts done pursuant to that declaration is null, void and of no legal effect.

I have noticed you took over from Dave.
Ow Bai,
Me speaking the truth.
You deleted many PPP supporters post during the count. You will become less restless when you learn to accept that free speech is part of a democratic process. You are still in PNC dictatorship mode.
