Dr. Bawumia won in La Dadekotopon, Cape Coast North, Twifo-Atti Morkwa, Dormaa West, and Jaman North, according to the report. Previous surveys had placed John Mahama in the lead.

But, given the overwhelming support he received from NPP loyalists, Members of Parliament (MPs), and government appointees, Dr. Bawumia's performance to the NDC is embarrassing. In response, Allotey Jacobs chastised the NDC for attacking the procedure, which he says was similar to what the NDC did in May. Dr. Bawumia's triumph, he says, was not only historic but also spectacular. "Call it 61 percent; 61% can equal 95 percent." You ambush, rush, and rig your system to favour one person, then return and declare a clear instance of the actual election process in which someone receives 61 percent embarrassing? "This is just political bluster," he stated on Accra's Peace FM.
