The Electoral Commission of Namibia (ECN) used wrong ballot papers meant for a Keetmanshoop local authority at two polling stations in the Koes and Aroab local authorities. According to Chief Electoral Officer, Theo Mujoro, a total 227 voters managed to cast wrong ballots at the Koes local authority, and 185 in Aroab. In a letter issued today addressed to affected parties and candidates, namely Landless People's Movement (LPM), Independent Patriots for Change (IPC), Namibia Economic Freedom Fighters (NEFF), Popular Democratic Movement (PDM) and SWAPO, Mujoro acknowledged the errors and says they are waiting for lawyers to advise them on the way forward. It remains uncertain if new polls will take place. A total of 185 voters cast ballots at that polling station before they detected that they were using wrong ballots. Mujoro says the wrong ballot papers have been withheld and sealed, and will not be counted or collated. Lastly, a mobile team in the Mariental constituency allowed voters not registered for a local authority to vote in those elections. Meanwhile, he expressed happiness with the overall turnout of voters in both elections. Mujoro also declined to indicate when are they likely to announce all regional council and local authority results, saying it remains speculative, even though progress in counting is satisfactory.
