The Electoral Commission has announced that it will re-exhibit the updated provisional voters register (PVR) online from today, Tuesday October 15 to Saturday October 19, 2024.

This is in line with what the commission said at the Inter Party Advisory Committee (IPAC) meeting that addressed concerns on the provisional voters register raised by the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC).

The commission says it has fixed many of the issues raised during the first public exhibition of the voters register.

But based on concerns raised with the nature of discrepancies, and in consonance with what was agreed at an IPAC meeting, it is going ahead to re-exhibit the updated provisional register, but this time, it is being done online.

From today, October 15, voters can check their details via short code *711*51# free of charge.

Voters can also check their details from the EC’s website: https://ec.gov.gh.

“Voters should click on the pop-up link at the bottom-right corner of the screen and enter the 10-digit Voter ID number to receive their voter registration details.”

The EC called on the public to report any identified discrepancies to its District Office for corrections.

“The Public should note that any discrepancies identified must be reported to the District Office of the Commission where they are registered voters for correction. Once the Re-Exhibition Exercise ends on Saturday, 19th October, voters will still be able to check their details Online but CANNOT request for correction of their details.”

It also urged political parties to use the Template provided to submit any discrepancies identified during the re-exhibition period.

“Political Parties are required to use the Template provided by the Commission to submit any discrepancies identified during the Re-Exhibition period.”
