NOW THAT IT IS OFFICIAL that the nation is heading to a runoff election between Vice President Joseph Boakai’s Unity Party (UP) and Senator George Weah’s Coalition for Democratic Change (CDC), one thing that we think the Commission needs to do now is soul searching. But when one sins and comes to the realization that one has indeed sinned, one needs to do soul searching in order to be forgiven by the Almighty. Jerome G. Korkoya-led National Elections Commission, which by all indications scored poorly in the handling of the October 10th Presidential and Legislative Elections. Charles Walker Brumskine, All Liberian Party of Mr. Benoni Wilfred Urey and Alternative National Congress of Mr. Alexander B. Cummings, have all openly criticized the Commission. By doing this, we think, the Commission will be doing its part to build a vibrant democracy that Liberia is striving to sustain.
