Group cite flaws in Antigua\'s election register

Published:Monday | March 9, 2009 | 2:00 PM

The Free and Fair Election League in Antigua and Barbuda is raising concerns about the voters list ahead of Thursday’s general election.



The organisation said hundreds of newly registered voters have not been included in the list making it invalid.



The watchdog group has since withdrawn its application to monitor the voting.



The Antigua and Barbuda Chamber of Commerce is also questioning the register in five constituencies.



The Commerce said the numbers do not conform to migration and economic trends over the past five years.



The Electoral Commission has still not commented on the claims.
