The Liberty and Justice Party (LJP) has drawn attention to the lack of “independent scrutineers” in Guyana’s electoral process.
A statement issued last evening from the party noted that during a meeting with the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) a fact-finding team was provided “detailed information on electoral scrutineers” including their ability to scrutinize every transaction of the electoral period including during Election Day.
“It was noted by the LJP delegation that there are no independent scrutineers as they are all sourced from Parliamentary Parties,” the statement reads.
