Following that, the balloting for positions on the presidential and parliamentary ballot papers will take place on September 23 and 24, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>The EC is determined to expedite the announcement of the election results and has set a target of three days after the voting exercise.<\/p>\n<p>However, this will depend on everything going on according to plan.<\/p>\n<p>To ensure a smooth electoral process, the EC has planned a series of activities leading up to the elections.<\/p>\n<p>The voters\u2019 registration exercise will be conducted from May 7 to May 27, 2024. This will be followed by a countrywide initiative to replace missing voter ID cards starting from May 30, 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Before the registration exercise commences, the EC has allocated 56 days for public education on voter registration, which will take place from April 1 to May 26, 2024. This preparatory phase aims to inform Ghanaians about the importance of voter registration and encourage maximum participation.<\/p>\n<p>After the registration process, the provisional voters\u2019 register will be submitted to political parties between July 9 and 18, 2024. Then, a final exhibition of the voters\u2019 register will be held from July 15 to 24, 2024, allowing citizens to verify their details.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the EC plans to submit the final voters\u2019 register to political parties between August 30 and September 5, 2024.<\/p>\n<p>This will give the parties enough time to review the register before the elections take place.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the EC expects to declare the results of the 2024 presidential polls within three days of the voting exercise, if everything goes according to plan.<\/p>\n<p>In its programme of activities for the 2024 general election, obtained by the media, the EC will conduct a voters\u2019 registration exercise from May 7 to May 27, 2024, and proceed with a nationwide exercise to replace missing voter ID cards from May 30, 2024.<\/p>\n<p>With these key dates established, Ghana is taking important steps towards conducting a transparent, inclusive, and credible electoral process.<\/p>\n<p>The EC\u2019s detailed plan ensures that all necessary actions are carried out efficiently, increasing the potential for a fair and successful election in 2024.<\/p>\n<p><strong>By Vincent Kubi<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 2 -->\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jean Mensa \u00a0 In preparation for Ghana\u2019s 2024 presidential and parliamentary elections, the Electoral Commission (EC) has released a schedule of important dates and activities.
