The Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) was forced to terminate the services of one of its registration clerks after it was discovered that they were a People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) polling agent, according to two Commissioners.
Both government-nominated Commissioner Sase Gunraj and opposition-nominated counterpart Vincent Alexander told Stabroek News that the issue came to light on Tuesday when the APNU+AFC met with GECOM.
Gunraj, who represents the PPP/C on the Commission, said that Chief Election Officer Vishnu Persaud immediately dealt with the issue when it was brought to his attention.
