Election 2024: Special voting scheduled for December 2, announces EC

The Electoral Commission (EC) has disclosed that special voting for the 2024 presidential and parliamentary elections is scheduled for Monday, December 2.

The announcement was conveyed by the Commission’s chairperson, Jean Adukwei Mensa, during a meeting with the national executives of the Ghana Journalists Association (GJA) and representatives of the security forces in Accra on Tuesday, May 28.

“The special voting will be held on Monday 2nd December 2024 in all the 275 constituencies in the country,” she stated.

The special voting arrangement is designed to facilitate voters who will be engaged in election-related tasks on the main polling day.

This comprises personnel from the Ghana Armed Forces, National Intelligence Bureau (NIB), National Security, Ghana Immigration Service, Ghana National Fire Service, and Information Services Department.

Moreover, it encompasses members of the National Ambulance Service, Customs Division of the Ghana Revenue Authority, Prisons Service, Ghana Journalists Association, Ghana Police Service, and the National Media Commission. This early voting guarantees that these individuals can participate in the electoral process without hindrance to their professional duties during the elections.
However, the outcomes of the special voting will not be announced until after the general elections.
