Booklets found in vehicle in Ahafo Ano, not ballot papers https://www.adomonline.com/false-booklets-found-in-vehicle-in-ahafo-ano-not-ballot-papers/ Fri, 06 Dec 2024 10:31:28 +0000 https://www.adomonline.com/?p=2480092 Claim: An X user, @marcusadampah, alleges that the New Patriotic Party ( NPP) has been caught with ballot papers and voter’s register as part of a plot to rig the December 7, 2024, election.

Verdict: False

Explanation

There is no evidence that the booklets in the vehicle seen in the video are ballot papers. However, an analysis of the footage showed printed copies of the voters’ register in the vehicle.

Conventionally, the EC always makes the register available to the parties ahead of elections.

The narration accompanying the footage mentioned “voter’s register” and not ballot papers. Also, no credible media outlet has reported the alleged claim.

The precedent in Ghana is that Electoral officials, political party representatives, and police officers are responsible for transporting ballot papers to the various polling centers.
