Polls open today across Liberia at 8 a.m. and close at six in the evening. According to the National Election Commission , voters in the queue at 6 p.m. will be allowed to vote.Liberians are set to elect a new president today in the country’s fourth election since the civil war ended.
The commission is mandated to announce final results within 15 days after the election. However, preliminary results will be announced every by the commission as they trickle in. Although all counties are important, some are more important than others as a result of the number of registered voters. The last election in 2017 saw Messrs Weah and Boakai go at each other in a run-off as neither of the two was able to secure the requisite 50 +1 per cent votes in the first ballot.
Mr Boakai is supported by Yekeh Kolubah who represents District 10 in Monsterrado. The former warlord who is also a staunch critic of Mr Weah has thrown his weight behind the Unity Party. This will definitely affect the fortunes of the party either positively or negatively.
