The Electoral Commission (EC) will today, February 17, 2025, re-run the Council of State elections in the North East and Ashanti regions.
The decision follows a tie in the North East Region and a disruption caused by thugs in the Ashanti Region during the initial voting process on Tuesday.
In the North East region, the EC reported that the top two candidates secured six votes each.
In the Ashanti Region, all cast ballots were lost due to the disruption.
The Commission has since taken steps to ensure a peaceful re-run by engaging security agencies.
