With a recount of the votes from the March 2nd general elections approaching the end and the PPP/C maintaining a significant lead (see other story on page 3), the incumbent APNU+AFC last night made its strongest signal yet that it was preparing to reject the final result after making a series of claims that have been widely repulsed.
Despite President David Granger having said repeatedly that he will accept the declaration of the Chairman of the Guyana Elections Commission, the coalition seems to be going in a different direction despite having declared victory in March just days after the elections.
“The APNU+AFC has been exposing evidence of electoral fraud perpetrated on this country by the PPP/C. We will continue to do so during this recount exercise. The APNU+AFC wishes to make it clear that President Granger and the Leader of the opposition agreed to a recount, the aim of which was to ensure that the results of this election can be deemed credible.
