Executive Members of the National Democratic Congress say they have received assurances from Electoral officials that the party’s concerns regarding the island’s voters list will be dealt with urgently. Senior NDC officials met Tuesday April 8th, 2008 with Supervisor of Elections Nadica McIntyre. The NDC had several concerns regarding irregularities in the voters list, distribution of identification cards for persons registered to vote and the issue of dual citizenship for some of its candidates seeking re election in the upcoming polls. “I get the feeling there is a sense of urgency by the electoral office to have some of the problems addressed,” said NDC Deputy Leader George Prime. The NDC has consistently protested discrepancies in the Voters’ List, including stressing the need for the recovery of more than 500 names that went missing after a computer crash at the Electoral Office. The party has also demanded the purging from the list of the names of over 100 dead people. Prime said the NDC will be submitting its Claims and Objections regarding the last voters list by the April 14 deadline. In additional, the deputy leader said the party will also be submitting bulk submissions of irregularities to the office. “We are also aware that many registrants have been tardy in the collection of their identification cards and to this end, we made some recommendations and we have been assured by the electoral office that the issue will be dealt with and we are very satisfied, the office even went above what we requested,” Prime remarked.He said the electoral office has committed to publishing the ID cards in the various registration offices.The NDC had requested posting of the weekly publication of new registrants and the weekly publishing of a listing of the names of persons whose cards are still at the electoral office..
