Elections
The run off elections were held on Nov 8, 2005. I was in Ganta for the them and our school, Hope Academy was one of the poling places. Here are some shots from the campus.
1. Rachel our principal with two of the observers from the Carter Center.
2. Rachel stands in line to cast her vote.
3. Laykaye one of the teachers works as a polling officer.
4. Polling officer checks in a voter.
5. My foster daughter Musu works at a polling place. I am so proud of her.
The elections went off well though the turn out was not as good as the first election, it was fair and transparent.
The new president is Ellen Johnson-Serlief, the first woman to be elected president in any African nation!
