Ballot papers for voting on new regions out

The ballot papers for the December 27 referendum for the creation of new regions have been printed by the Electoral Commission (EC).

There are two official colours on the ballots, yellow for ‘yes’ and Brown for ‘no’” a statement from the EC noted.

For the creation of a region to take effect, there will have to be at least a 50 percent voter turnout and 80 percent of the ballots cast must be a ‘yes’.
The Electoral Commission has already held a limited voter registration in areas the new regions will cover.

This was after the process was given the green light by the Justice Brobbey Commission, which was set up to look into the requests for the creation of new regions.
