The record shows that Appellants did not rebut this testimony." 1" Appellants submit that during the cross-examination of witness Lighe, Counsel for 1st Appellant sought to impeach the credibility of the witness, and thereby rebut his testimony, by showing that the "Know Your Candidates" posters that the witness had presented to the hearing were not the marked ballots that were found buried in Grand Gedeh. Counsel for 1st Appellant put for the following question: "By permission of this Hearing, I will like to show you photograph of the ballots that were found in Grand Gedeh County and ask you were these the same documents that you brought here today?"
