TEHRAN, December 30 - An election observation group in Congo is reporting multiple complications as the country turns out for a presidential election.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - Spokesman Luc Lutala with the Symotel civil society group says that "we knew there would be issues but this is way beyond what we expected."
He says some polling stations have been moved at the last minute, confusing voters.
The group also has heard reports from every province saying voting machines in some cases are not working. The group has some 19,000 observers deployed around Congo.
The group also says numerous cases of missing voter lists have been reported. Exact numbers have not yet been compiled.
