Two congressmen who President David Granger earlier this year assured that elections would be free and fair, yesterday joined calls that the Guyana Elections Commission issue results in keeping with the 33-day recount, even as they called out the Chief Election Officer for his ploy to subvert the process.
Democrat Congressmen Albio Sires and Gregory Meeks, Chairman and Vice Chair respectively of the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on the Western Hemisphere, Civilian Security, and Trade, said they issued the statement in support of democracy here.
“We condemn all efforts to undermine the credibility of the March 2nd election, including recent actions taken by the Chief Elections Officer to effectively disenfranchise thousands of voters and manipulate the vote count,” the statement said.
