The Campaign Committee to Elect Alexander B. Cummings President of Liberia said it is alarmed by the reported numbers the CPP presidential ticket is said to have received so far.
“While we are still assessing the results at this point, it’s important that we flag as a major issue of concern the clear pattern that is emerging across the country,” Amb. Lewis G. Brown National Campaign Chairman wrote.
According to Amb. Brown, from all across the country, partisans and supporters of the Collaborating Political Parties (CPP) are informing the party of troubling concerns that places where they voted, including in large numbers, are reporting ridiculously low numbers for the CPP’s Presidential Ticket.
“This is also true where CPP down-ballot candidates are projected to win. We are seeing this undemocratic trend at every polling center all across the country. This is compelling CPP partisans and supporters to conclude that results for the CPP Presidential Ticket may have been predetermined as opposed to reflecting the actual votes cast.
We are assessing these troubling reports and alarming concerns and urging all Liberians to be peaceful, as we do so. We are determined to ensure the true will of the voters are upheld. Also, we are resolved to factually uncover and understand what has actually happened. We have a duty to our young democracy, our partisans and supporters, and the people of Liberia to do so. Let there be no mistake: The outcome of the October 10 Elections must be seen by the people of Liberia to freely and fairly reflect their will. Nothing else can be acceptable,” Brown concluded.
