General elections were held in Ghana on 7 December 2008.[1] Since no candidate received more than 50% of the votes, a run-off election was held on 28 December 2008 between the two candidates who received the most votes, Nana Akufo-Addo of the governing New Patriotic Party and John Atta Mills of the opposition National Democratic Congress.[2] Mills was certified as the victor by a margin of less than one percent, winning the presidency on his third attempt.[3] It is to date the closest election in Ghanaian history.
