Ghana's Presidential Election 2024: What Determines the Winner?

On December 7, 2024, 18.8 million Ghanaians cast their votes in the nation's ninth general election, raising questions about the future of Ghana's democracy and economy. The winning criteria hinge on securing over 50% of valid votes, with a potential runoff looming if no candidate achieves this threshold. This election marks a pivotal moment as the ruling NPP seeks to "Break the 8" cycle of leadership change while economic concerns, including inflation and rising poverty, dominate discussions. The impact of illegal gold mining, which has contaminated water sources and displaced farming communities, adds another layer to the electoral landscape. Greater Accra's historical role as a kingmaker and the northern regions' shifting loyalties could significantly influence the outcome.
