Liberia's National Elections Commission is finalizing the results of the presidential and legislative polls held on Tuesday. Ballot papers have been brought to the Data Centre where officials will electronically tabulate the results. The Election was the first since the UN peacekeeping mission ended in 2018. Election observers have reported peaceful polling and high voter turnout. Incumbent President George Weah is hoping for a second term but may face a second round against his main rival, Joseph Boakai. Results are expected to be announced within 15 days.
