Georgetown: All ballot boxes from various locations across Region Four were transported to Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) head office in Kingston, Georgetown. However, the recounting process will occur at the Arthur Chung Conference Center, East Coast Demerara on Monday.
The containers were escorted by ranks of the Guyana Police Force and followed by political party agents from the central locations where they were stored.
GECOM is gearing up for a national recount of the ballots cast at the March 2, 2020 polls. The Commission is expected to meet later today to decide on the way forward with the process.
The recount which followed a controversy over the tabulation of votes in Region Four, will be supervised by a CARICOM team. The team has since arrived in Guyana at the request of President David Granger and Opposition Leader Bharrat Jagdeo.
