The release of official results from general elections held on Sept. 1 in Guyana has been delayed by the two major opposition parties, which are demanding recounts in key areas because of what they say are glaring and obvious discrepancies.
Both We Invest in Nationhood (WIN) and A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) successfully pleaded for recounts in districts seven, ten and four, saying exponential gains by the governing People’s Progressive Party (PPP) were not only very suspicious but were also borne out by evidence of voter padding emerging from checks in ballot boxes.
