Whistleblower hits back at public criticism from Chief Electoral Officer.
More on the Nolan Show's investigation into the 2019 general election registration process.
The Electoral Office say they don't know how many people were affected by false deadline dates.
But how can she know how many people were affected - if her office don't know how many letters were sent?
The Electoral Office - a public body owned by you - and trusted to run our elections .
They criticised a young whistleblower who raised concerns about deadline dates for registration- describing many of his allegations as unfounded and inaccurate .
But they haven't - and wont meet him .
They criticised and attempted to undermine the Nolan shows journalism.
Then yesterday the unreserved public apology came from the Electoral Office when we confronted them with hard evidence that they had been sending out misleading letters to the public.
Their apology yesterday morning was interesting. The Electoral Office wouldn't tell the Nolan show what specifically they were apologising for.
And they wouldn't answer our question as to how many citizens had been affected.
But then, the Electoral Office in Northern Ireland admitted last night that misleading letters - with misleading deadline dates, may have been sent multiple times , across multiple days across Northern Ireland
