FREEDOM HOUSE – THE Peoples Progressive Party/Civic has been actively ensuring that all Guyanese use the current Claims of Objections period of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) to ensure they are on the voters list.
Since the commencement of this process, the party has appointed scrutineers for all the GECOM centres countrywide.
Our scrutineers have reported that the queries or concerns of persons visiting the GECOM offices are being addressed in a professional and timely manner.
Additionally, our party activists are conducting house to house follow-up work and they are identifying those persons whose transactions are not completed. This includes those who have not uplifted their ID cards and those who have problems with regard to securing birth certificates for registration.
Emphasis is also being placed on those who have attained voting age and have not yet registered; those who have registered and own ID cards but their names are not listed; persons who have requested transfers from one division to another and are encountering difficulties; and persons with incorrect particulars on the voters list.
Special emphasis is also being placed on ensuring that the names of persons who died are not included on the list.
So far, the work by PPP/C activists has enabled many Guyanese to have their concerns addressed and added to the final voters list.
The PPP/C remains optimistic that at the end of the current Claims & Objections period, all of the concerns of the party will be addressed promptly after representation.
The party also uses this opportunity to urge all Guyanese of voting age to ensure they visit the GECOM registration centres in their area and uplift their ID cards and sort out their particulars so as to ensure their names are on the final voters list.
Those who are still encountering difficulties are encouraged to make contact with our party representatives or our nearest Freedom House office.
