The Editor,The National Elections Commission of Liberia (NEC) must be smart enough and must know better to uphold the Code of Conduct law and the Supreme Court of Liberia decision or else the NEC could face legal actions in court that will seek to invalidate the outcome of any elections outcome if the NEC puts on the ballot name or names of candidates who fall short of satisfying the Code of Conduct Law. The code of Conduct Law took effect on the very day it was passed into law by the Liberian Legislature. The Liberia Code of Conduct Law was modelled after a similar law in the Unitec States: The 1939 Hatch Act. Therefore the enforcement of the Supreme Court of Liberia ruling on the Code of Conduct Law rests squarely with the already problems-plagued NEC. Police found in Amos' home NEC materials from the NEC Headquarters including voter registration cards, forms, cameras, printers and much more.
