presidential candidate to lead them in the 2016 general elections on Saturday, October 18<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0and over 145,000 delegates are expected to vote<\/p>\n[contextly_sidebar id=”WJAQeBGOTCybKSJlpqufV0ozDJncSMBn”]Speaking to Citi News, the EC\u2019s Director of Public Affairs, Christian Owusu-Parry, said officials of the NPP have assured, they will meet the Wednesday deadline.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs we speak now, we are yet to receive the voters register. We are talking to the party officials and they\u2019ve indicated that the registers are ready and that we are going to receive them today. They are yet to be delivered to us anyway.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to Mr. Parry, \u00a0any further delays could impede the smooth organization of Saturday’s elections.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf the registers are delivered to us today, we won\u2019t have too many problems. But if it is delivered too late, then we may have challenges\u00a0 with distributing the registers because we have to send the registers to the constituencies. Considering the fact that we have 275 constituencies, if we don\u2019t get the registers early enough, we may have challenges distributing them.\u201d<\/p>\n
In all, over 140000 delegates are expected to vote at the 276 polling stations across the country.<\/p>\n
