Prime Minister Dickon Mitchell on Sunday announced 5 November as the date for a general election here, almost a year ahead of the constitutional deadline in October 2027.
Mitchell, an attorney who will be leading the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) into a second consecutive general election, did not name the date for nomination of candidates. But according to the official Government Gazette, in an extraordinary publication, “the date for nomination of candidates shall be 15th October, 2026.”
