In ULAA Election Case: Court Provides 17 Amended Orders
The Court of Common Pleas of Delaware County, Pennsylvania, the United States of America, has provided seventeen amendments to guide both parties of Union of Liberian Associations in the Americas (ULAA) during and after the election, slated for March 2,2024.
The court’s first amendment says that the prior Election Commission-approved delegate lists for the September 2023 election, covering Iowa, Ohio and Georgia chapters, will participate in the March 2 election in the United States of America.
These chapters, according to the amended order as stipulated by all counsel, will provide to the attorneys lists of eligible voters, and the attorneys will compare these lists with the delegate lists for the September election and register eligible voters who were previously excluded.
Count two of the amended order states that all matters on which the attorneys cannot agree will be referred to the judge.
The Court of Common Pleas ordered that the underlying conflict, mainly Georgia, IOWA and Ohio chapters, will be resolved by the both attorneys.
Information gathered says election will be in-person voting, and no changes will be made to the current candidates’ list.
The court has also ordered the Elections Commission, in concert with the attorneys, to submit a budget for the hosting of ULAA election.
Just a few months ago, the court issued another order, and this amendment seems as the court’s additional order in ULAA’s election.
When some diaspora Liberians were asked about the court’s directive, they welcomed the court’s decision in the matter, observing that the court’s decision was timely.
