ECC also observed a low number of security and party agents present at the Exhibition Centers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to Bloh, the exhibition procedures were generally followed and that registered voters who appeared with their voter registration cards were permitted to inspect or check the provisional registration roll for any mistakes, missing information, or probable ineligible voters on the list.<\/p>\n<p>Bloh added that during the exhibition period, 36 objections were filed because the persons were believed to be ineligible. He explained that an objection according to NEC procedure is filed only when the person is believed not to be a Liberian, is not 18 years old, is a felon (criminal), incompetent or deceased.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe ECC also tracked objections filed based on the issue of residency. Three of these objections were raised and recorded by the NEC Officer because the persons were believed not to be residents of the district or the community,\u201d Bloh noted. \u201cOverall, the exhibition was peacefully conducted across the country, with no incidence of violence or disruption reported.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, the group is calling on the electoral body to highlight by county the number of objections filed during the exhibition and whether they were resolved or not and inform the public of the number of inclusions made following the exhibition process.<\/p>\n<p>The ECC added that for NEC to maintain public confidence and trust in the electoral process, the commission should provide observer groups an electronic copy of the Provisional Registration Roll for independent analysis prior to publishing the Final Registration Roll.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe NEC should advertise the duplication lists on websites, newspapers, and other media as well as report these findings to the Ministry of Justice for further investigation,\u201d Bloh added.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Bloh is calling on political parties should commit to monitoring future exhibition exercises and electoral processes.<\/p>\n<p>According to Bloh, during the exhibition period, it was noticed that Coalition for Democratic Change (CDC), the Collaborating Political Parties (CPP), and the Unity Party (UP) had few agents stationed in exhibition centers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/liberia\">Liberia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ABEDNEGO DAVIS Africa-Press &#8211; Liberia.
