Guyana: ERC declares 2023 LGE free and fair
Guyana’s Ethnic Relations Commission (ERC) has declared that yesterday’s Local Government Election (LGE) was “free, fair, transparent and conducted in an atmosphere of peace”.
The commission made its declaration after observing polling at over 250 Polling Places in five Administrative Regions.
“The Commission would like to commend Polling Day staff of the Guyana Elections Commission, (GECOM), for the professional execution of their duties and the resulting efficiency of the process. The ERC is thankful for the exemplary conduct displayed by polling agents from all sides, and police officers for their security role in ensuring smooth polling,” the ERC said.
As the country awaits the final results, the commission has reiterated its call for Guyanese to respect the results.
GECOM is expected to declare the election in most of the 80 Local Authority Areas(LAA) over the next few hours.
