Tensions Flare Over Voter Re-Registration For Presidential Election Runoff

Over 47,000 voters applied for re-registration for the September 30 presidential election runoff, a figure the Elections Commission says exceeds the 42,000 from the first round, prompting the opposition PPM/PNC coalition to allege attempted election theft and demand an investigation. The EC, which has processed more than 19,000 forms, denies manipulation of the online portal and says it will publish the complete list of re-registered voters for scrutiny once verification is complete.
