Voting in the district-level elections at the Methodist Church polling station in the Ga-North constituency of the Greater Accra Region recorded an interesting incident when an identical twin was refused voting because the biometric system had identified her as someone who had already voted._ Her twin sister had successfully voted after going through the identification process. She turned up hours later after her sister had voted, hoping to exercise her franchise, however, she was identified as having already voted, and was therefore not allowed to vote. The Presiding Officer at the centre explained that this was the first of its kind, adding that it might either be the same person posing as her other twin or a minor system failure. However, residents say they know the twin sisters; therefore they were surprised the system identified them as the same person.
