62 investigated this matter and turned the said "Know Your Candidates" posters to the NEC. The record shows that Appellants did not rebut this testimony." 1st Appellants submit that the holding of the Final Ruling of the BOC negates a holding of the Supreme Court of Liberia, which states that, "We are taken aback, firstly, at the apparent misunderstanding by the Board of Commissioners of the issues presented and, secondly, by its reliance on legal technicalities in deciding whether in fact in the counting and reporting of the ballots casts violated the law or whether the totality of the facts presented pointed to such violation. In that connection, we must emphasize that the National Elections Commission is an administrative agency, not a court. As an administrative agency, its role in the investigative process is primarily fact-finding, not legal technicalities." Other Issues 1. Although 1st Appellants pleaded and two of its witnesses, Musa H. Bility and Ben. Sanvee, testified as to the violation of the Constitution and Elections Law of Liberia, which substantially and effectively deprived voters of their constitutional right to vote, and that voters were not similarly afforded equal opportunity and equal protection, as guaranteed under the Constitution and laws of Liberia, the Board of Commissioners (BOC) committed a reversible error when the BOC, in its Final Ruling, failed to address the salient issue of the violation of the constitutional right to vote, as well as equal opportunity and equal protection under the law. 2. 1st Appellants say and aver that the Board of Commissioners (BOC) committed a reversible error when the BOC, in its Final Ruling, failed to take into consideration the violation of the Constitutional and legal rights of the many voters, who were not allowed to vote because their names were not found on the Final Registration Roll.

The Hearing Officer's final ruling in these proceedings is hereby confirmed and affirmed," without taking into consideration or even referencing the holding of the Hearing Officer, which reads thus: "WHEREFORE AND IN VIEW OF ALL I HAVE SAID ABOVE, the National Elections Commission is mandated to take the necessary steps to correct all what they alluded to as difficulties and challenges before any future election." Here are some of the "difficulties and challenges" referred to by the Hearing Officer, which were presented by the 1st Appellants during the hearing, and which the BOC failed to consider: (i) In Margibi County, Precinct #24180, Polling Place #1, Liberty Party Poll Watcher noticed that
