LEON Statement on Counting and Tallying Special Senatorial E-Day

LEON commends all Liberians for the peaceful conduct of elections and cautions politicians and political commentators against making inciting comments or actions that could derail the progress of results tallying. LEON continues to observe the tally process across the country, which has been highly transparent so far, and urges all party and candidate agents to continue doing the same.

Distinguished Ladies and gentlemen of the press, The Liberia Election Observation Network LEON observed and monitored the entire elections process throughout Election Day through its 700 observers stationed around the country. This report is based on LEON’s observation of the closing and counting procedures applied by the NEC staff from 404 checklists submitted to the database and verbal reports from observers.
