GECOM Chair shoots down Opposition’s second motion for ‘independent’ review of 2020 polls

Chair of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) retired Justice Claudette Singh on Tuesday shot down yet another motion by the Opposition-nominated Commissioners to have the March 2020 polls reviewed internally.

Late last month, Commissioner Charles Corbin tabled a motion seeking to have GECOM “commission its own independent review to gain a better understanding of the bases for the aforementioned allegations and occurrences and to consider if there are existing or potential weaknesses in the processes employed by GECOM for the conduct of elections.”
