Although President David Granger has not yet announced an election date, the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) is moving full speed ahead with its preparations.
At its statutory meeting yesterday, the commission decided that a 35-day period of Claims and Objections (C&O) will begin on October 1st, 2019.
Commissioners told reporters that the qualifying date for inclusion on the Official List of Electors during this period will be December 31st. Persons who will be 18 or over on or before this date are advised to check the lists in their communities for their names. Persons may also apply to have their address changed or object to the inclusion of a person who may be dead or otherwise disqualified from the same list of electors on which they appear.
