The Malawi Electoral Commission (MEC) has announced that it will publish in the Gazette the 23rd June, 2020 as the date of polling for the fresh Presidential election.

This is according to a press release signed by Mec Chairperson Chifundo Kachale, after parliament passed a resolution on Tuesday setting June 23 as the date of the election in compliance with the Supreme Court ruling.

Malawians will vote again for president after the High Court in Lilongwe nullified the 2019 presidential election saying it has many irregularities.

Three candidates namely; President Peter Mutharika, the torchbearer of Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) and United Democratic Front (UDF), Dr Lazurus Chakwera of Tonse Alliance and Peter Kuwani of Mbakuwaku will contest in the coming presidential election.
