The Private Sector Commission (PSC), on Thursday, March 23, 2023, met with the Chief Election Officer Vishnu Persaud to discuss preparations for Local Government Elections (LGE).
The PSC said in a release that it sought an assurance that the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) is “organized and prepared to conduct a free, open and transparent election and that arrangements are in place to guard against any attempt to illegally manipulate the presentation and counting of the Statements of Poll during the process of tabulation as occurred in the last General and Regional Elections”.
The PSC has written to GECOM requesting Local Observer Accreditation Status for the forthcoming LGE.
