Lowenfield to prepare final report by tomorrow
More than three months after the March 2 polls, Guyanaβs Chief Election Officer (CEO) Keith Lowenfield has been ordered to prepare a declaration of the results of the General and Regional Elections (GRE) using the data generated from the National Recount.
The Elections Commission has also directed that any questions about the validity of the GRE be submitted for judicial review via an elections petition. The decisions yesterday bring PPP/C presidential candidate Irfaan Ali closer to being sworn in as the new President of Guyana.
Up to press time there was no statement by caretaker President David Granger on the decisions by GECOM though he has routinely pledged to abide by any declaration by the Chair.
