Opposition Leader Bharrat Jagdeo has said that he is open to having the Chairman of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) be someone from the Commonwealth.
During a press conference, yesterday, Jagdeo said that the President has not yet responded to the letter Opposition Chief Whip Gail Teixeira sent the Ministry of the Presidency four days ago, in which the Opposition indicated that Jagdeo is willing to meet at any time to address the selection of the new GECOM Chairman.
This is due to the fact that retired Justice James Patterson demitted office after a ruling by the Caribbean Court of Justice found his appointment by the President to be unconstitutional and flawed.
The Opposition Leader said, yesterday, that he is hoping for a response from the President soon, adding that it is his intention for the 18 names on the three lists previously rejected by the President to form the basis for their discussions.
But the Opposition has already started the process of soliciting new names. Jagdeo said that selecting names from the Commonwealth is being considered if necessary because it is permitted by law.
This contention was previously raised by another member of the People’s Progressive Party (PPP), Anil Nandlall, who said that it should be so, since the President’s consideration of those names was flawed. He added that the President could perhaps justify why those names were rejected, first.
On Wednesday, Leader of the Alliance for Change (AFC), Khemraj Ramjattan, in addressing this issue, had said that Jagdeo should not “dump” six names on the President, but that he must meet with the President and deliberate on the six names together.
Jagdeo said that it is not his intention to dump six names on the President.
Under normal circumstances, the Opposition Leader would develop a list without the President’s input.
The AFC Leader had added that the CCJ Judgment Summary on Patterson’s appointment orders the two parties to instead deliberate on the names together.
In truth, in naming that method as a possible solution to the current impasse, the judgment only suggests it, saying that the parties could “perhaps” take that course of action.
When asked if he would be open to doing so, Jagdeo said that he is not above it, and that he will do what is necessary to ensure they meet consensus for a speedy process to the General and Regional Elections.

This is the same shit the jackass Granger did last time and though the CCJ chastised him for it, it seems that he is so brain dead that he hasn't yet realized that the rest of the world is witnessing his nonsense. For over a year, he hid in his p ussy rather than give any reason at all why he did not accept any of the candidates provided by Jagdeo. Then, out of the abyss, he resurrected dead man Patterson to squat lazily at GECOM.
The GADAHA is beyond brain dead, he is a shit head IDIOT!!!

Being the Indo KKK racist you are you jump up and down and scream with Jagdeo.
1. Virtually every single GECOM chair under the PPP was an Indian. There was a feeling that this was the time for an African. You all might not know this but Guyana is ethnically diverse and that little piece of India that you all pulled under Jagdeo isn't going to be tolerated.
2. Jagdeo selected a bunch of black PPP stooges and hooligans, meaning that either Granger select one of them, are chose an Indian.
Jagdeo needs to respect the fact that Guyana is diverse and even as he thinks that the only blacks who are "fit and proper" are the PPP stooges he will need to find a "fit and proper" black person who is not a PPP thug if he wishes the process to move forward.
Jagdeo can repeat his stunt from last time and Granger will refuse to agree or he can find competent and fair minded Afro Guyanese names to submit. Its all up to him.

No problem with it being 'the time for an African'. The problem is that Granger sticking to his core DNA was not willing to follow the law in doing so. He chose to toss out the law and take the ole style PNC wrong and strong approach. That is what the CCJ said of him. You moaned and groaned that "there was the feeling that it was the time for an African". Look what happened. An African was illegally appointed by despotic Granger and he (Patterson) f ucked up the commission. You want people to be given opportunities even if they end up f ucking up those operations.
Just to repeat. Cribby is moaning and groaning that it was time for an African to be appointed GECOM chairman. Well. An African was indeed appointed, albeit illegally. How did he perform. In just about a year's time, he f ucked up the operation there reminding the entire world of the days of ole when PNC used to f uck up the reputation of GECOM.

I guess you would rather PPP thugs like McLean, Hamilton or Lumumba. Jagdeo selected McLean.
I will suggest to you that the selection of Patterson was inappropriate, based on the CCJ's interpretation of the law and Basil William's incompetence, but please don't tell me that you think that the blacks who Jagdeo selected were suitable. Just research what they were doing in the Burnham era.
If an idiot represents his client the judges get angry. That is what Basil Williams accomplished and these learned judges probably know that he was a known idiot while at UWI.
Kascz, bottom line is Gadaha is a slimeball RACIST. A WOLF is sheep clothing, plain and simple!!

and in fact how did he perform? Was the LGE a mess? No Jagdeo screamed how well it was done.
If the USA cannot maintain voter lists properly I will not expect Guyana to do so. Every election in FL is a mess because of complaints about the voter lists. NY ditto on election day when scores show up to find that their names aren't on the list. I can only imagine how many "dead" people vote in NYC as well, because those lists are known to be inaccurate.

I didn't say who of Jagdeo's candidates I would prefer. All I said was that Granger allowed his wickedness to influence how he did his job and in this situation, the CCJ ruled that he acted illegally.

If the list used for the LGE is bloated by more than 200k names as Patterson is now claiming, then he did a f ucked up job with the LGE also. But since he had no trouble using the list then, he has to be making up this 200k number now to aid and abet the Coalition to squat illegally in office. Therefore, he f ucked up the operation at GECOM and it is being publicized all over the world.

If the list hasn't been revised then clearly over time it becomes irrelevant.
Funny thing that when Burnham had bloated lists all of you screamed and wailed. Well you know what he did with those bloated lists. I guess you want the PNC to do the same whenever the election is held.
And I bet if the PPP loses the screams will be fraudulent ballots cast by fake voters. Seems to me given Guyana's history a transparent process to ensure that the list of voters has a high accuracy level will be in Guyana's interests. But Jagdeo screams and you jump up when he does.

Continuous registration was Implemented since 2008 so it is GECOM's responsibility to keep it current EVERY day. If the list was NOT irrelevant in November for the LGE, it can't suddenly become irrelevant in December of January. If Patterson used that list for the LGE and is now moaning and groaning that it was not relevant, then he was doing a f ucked up job and that makes Granger a wicked person to first appoint him and then sit quiet as he Patterson was dumping shit on GECOM. The Opposition does not have the responsibility to give Patterson a pass for being lazy and ineffective. If the PNC still insist that the list was bloated, then they should do the honorable thing and relinquish the 2015 elections results.
Wouldn’t you like to know whose names will be on that list for GECOM Chair? At the back of my head, I am thinking that Jagdeo is going to give Granger what he wants. Somehow, I don’t trust Jagdeo to do the right thing. We should get to know who is on the list.
The fact is that all these shenanigans by jackass granger is solely to extend their time in power so they can continue to live the highlife as longs as possible and steal as much as they can.
