15th July, 2025 GEORGETOWN – The Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) has noted with much concern the inaccurate publication and misrepresentation of comments by some media houses in relation to the Chief Election Officer’s (CEO’s) response to queries pertaining to the earliest time the electorate can expect the declaration of results after the 1st September, 2025 elections. While it is evident from video recordings that the CEO specifically stated that the “insofar as a declaration is concerned at the level of GECOM (at the district level), we are earmarked to have declarations done by the night of the day after elections,” there are sections of the media that reported that the declaration will be done the same night of the elections. Such reporting constitutes a clear distortion of fact which, based on public responses to such publications, have led to public anxiety and confusion.
