"At this point, with about 10 percent of votes counted, we can assert that our candidate is in the lead in the presidential elections and is heading for a first round victory while we are on course to maintain our parliamentary majority," the statement said. The party asked the NDC and other parties to allow the Electoral Commission to do its work and "to cease their disgraceful efforts aimed at discrediting this election".
