The NDC reports that its candidate had polled 17,205 votes representing 57.4% of valid votes cast whiles his main contender Charles Opoku of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) got 11,389 votes representing 42% of valid votes cast.
A third candidate of the Liberal Party of Ghana got 85 (0.28%) of the votes.
If the results are confirmed, it means a return to Parliament for Quayson who was ousted via a Supreme Court ruling in May 2023 over his lack of eligibility when he contested in 2020.
Assin North became a beehive of political activity for the last few weeks as party bigwigs breezed into town to canvass for votes.
The NDC has scheduled a press conference even as bot parties wait for the Electoral Commission to formally declare the final results.
