I always find it gratifying to see nations with troubled pasts settle into election cycles and agreements to accept results. 14 million have a voice. The last election was super close, so the turn out for this should be good

"Ghana's opposition New Patriotic Party has accused the governing party of conspiring with Electoral Commission staff to fix Friday's election.
Opposition protesters were dispersed from outside the commission's offices in Accra by police firing tear gas.
The NPP said in a statement that the National Democratic Congress had stolen votes across the country."
Not all that gratifying then,...........
