![EC refuses NDC’s request to televise meeting on voters register](https://ghheadlines.com/images/default.png)
The Electoral Commission (EC) has denied a request by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to broadcast a meeting on the voters register.
The NDC had requested a live meeting with the commission to address concerns regarding the electoral roll for the 2024 general elections.
The Commission stands in readiness to hear from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) the discrepancies it has identified with the Provisional Voters Register.
But the EC in its response to the main opposition party said “As you already know, the essence of the Voters Exhibition Exercise is to correct discrepancies in the Register. Such discrepancies include missing names, misplaced voters, and duplicate images among others.
“The identification of discrepancies by your party is therefore not a new phenomenon. The Commission welcomes it in the hope that it will help ensure a Credible Register ahead of the 2024 General Election as envisaged by the Exhibition Exercise.”
RE: REQUEST FOR LIVE BROADCAST OF PRESENTATION OF OBSERVATIONS FOUND IN PVR-2024
I bring you greetings from the Commission and trust this letter finds you well.
Reference is made to your letter dated, 4th September, 2024 with reference number NDC/HQ/E/69/VOL/30 in the above subject matter.

The Commission is absolutely committed to free, fair, transparent, peaceful, and credible Elections. However, the Commission does not accept the proposal of a live broadcast of this meeting. Our team is ready to meet with your team on the agreed time.
Thank you.
