Dear Editor,
I NOTE with interest the robust reply to a letter by Dr. David Hinds, in which he argued that these elections could not be considered credible with all that has come to light during examination of the ballot boxes.
All the concerned entities and individuals, including your newspaper, have crowned to the main issue, which is the credibility of the process which took place on March 2, 2020.
Evidence available during the recount points to either gross incompetence or rascality. Whichever, the figures that show up if all the ballots were counted as they were, it means ballots that were certified, or if you wish to say good and valid, were also counted with those that are tainted and could not be good.
At this point, I am not prepared, or are we competent to say who are the perpetrators of alleged fraud, incompetence and rascality.
For me, the issue is that something is wrong. How could you use the word credible and therefore acceptable to the nation?
While I am preparing this letter, I noticed an interesting statement by Professor Duke Pollard which, in brief, poses the same question: Can GECOM, as they have been asked to, say a Regional and National Elections 2020 were free and fair?
Perhaps free but certainly not fair.
Dear Editor, I hope that with consistent expectations of credible journalism that you publish this letter.
Yours,
Eric Moseley
