Sev­er­al Unit­ed Na­tion­al Con­gress (UNC) elec­tion can­di­dates left the Elec­tions and Bound­aries Com­mis­sion (EBC) head­quar­ters in Port-of-Spain dis­ap­point­ed yes­ter­day, af­ter their re­quest to have two re­turn­ing of­fi­cers re­moved was dis­missed by Chief Elec­tion Of­fi­cer Fern Nar­cis and her team.

Fol­low­ing the nom­i­na­tion process on Fri­day, the UNC had claimed that the con­duct of two re­turn­ing of­fi­cers were ques­tion­able and could have pos­si­bly af­fect­ed the fair­ness of the nom­i­na­tion process.

Ac­cord­ing to UNC, one re­turn­ing of­fi­cer’s re­quire­ments for the par­ty’s Ch­agua­nas East can­di­date, Van­dana Mo­hit, were ir­reg­u­lar and bur­den­some com­pared to the de­mands for oth­er can­di­dates.
