Kaieteur News – The Bar Association of Guyana on Saturday commended the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) for the manner in which the tabulation and recount exercises were conducted.
In a statement to the media, the Bar Association said that through its election observation, it was able to monitor the electoral process as well as the recount process.
A Partnership for National Unity requested and was granted recounts of Sub-district 4 of District 4 and 77 boxes of District 5.
“The Bar Association wishes to congratulate GECOM for the manner in which the tabulation and recount were carried out, the efficiency with which they were completed and for the transparency of the process. It recognizes that GECOM officials worked with patience and calm in trying circumstances, including heat and space, without adding any undue escalation,” the statement said.
The Bar Association said that it is also satisfied that GECOM addressed challenges and difficulties professionally, and within the law.
“The Bar Association of Guyana wishes to thank its volunteers for their selfless dedication to observing the process at every stage. It urges all political parties who contested the elections to accept the results of those elections for a peaceful and speedy return to normalcy,” the statement said.
