Voter turnout at Techiman was encouraging as the electorate abandoned their social and economic activities and thronged the polling stations.
Voters Ghana News Agency (GNA) interviewed saw the exercise as "a very crucial one and therefore decided to put everything aside to report as early as 3.00 a.m.".
The general atmosphere in the town was calm and voting went on smoothly.
Ms. Mohammed Buherlatta, Presiding Officer at Kenten L/A Primary 'A' polling station, told newsmen that voters who could not trace their names in the register were asked to go to the district electoral office to verify and return to vote.
Mr. Kofi Atta Seth, constituency organising secretary of the National Reform Party (NRP), challenged an NDC party agent, Inusah, who was allegedly using a separate list of eligible voters whose names were not in the register of the Electoral Commission.
Security personnel seized the documents.
The Kenten polling station 'A' recorded only two voters who used thumbprint ID cards to vote.
Two centres, Good Shepherd and Presby JSS polling stations, however, did not have any security personnel as at 10 a.m.
