That’s disenfranchising millions of voters. Consider the repercussions.

Very true, the 50+1 rule should also apply to the voter turnout. A vote has to be legitimate, whether it’s 60% spoilt ballots, majority of eligible voters must turn up for the vote to be legitimate.

Consider that the constitution defines an electoral term as a period exceeding 3 years. Yes there is the area that says has been elected twice, but if one of the elections did not amount to a term, are we being fair to the candidate? Remember that it is a constitutional requirement to be fair. So let’s let this issue rest. What should concern us is the appointment of carders to the electoral commission.

We understand things differently, my brother, and if you do not get it, kindly do not compare me to other people you prefer. It is not everything you have to agree with or comment on just for the sake of…Kind Regards.

Even then, he will be reminded of results in 2021 of Choma: ECL 3. HH 69, 879.
Mazabuka:ECL 18. HH 139, 638. Nchelenge: ECL 11,236. HH 12, 128. Zambezi: ECL 1,243. HH 12,847. Harrowing memory results, could be worse in 2026.

We saw that with KK and FTJ. And we are seeing this with Lungu. If Lungu had genuinely retired and endorsed his successor PF would have been in a very strong position to give the UPND a good run for their money or even score an upset. This is just my personal opinion. Don’t insult me. If you think otherwise just put your opinions on this thread.
