Twinobusingye rejected 2020 NRM primaries election results when she was defeated by Mary Begumisa in the race for the NRM party ticket for Sembabule Woman member of parliament seat. Joy Kabasti who also rejected the same results claimed that several sub-county registrars were kidnapped for hours as they were transmitting the declaration forms to the district tally centre arguing that there was no way the results could remain reliable. Twinobusingye was among the four out  of the seven candidates in the .National Resistance Movement primaries in Mawogola North and West constituencies, Sembabule District who rejected the use of National Identity Cards in the 2020 NRM primaries as a guildline which was issued by Tanga Odoi where by all voters had to present their National Identification cards before they could be allowed to vote for their candidate. Odoi noted that the commission intended to set clear identifications for legitimate voters for purposes of eliminating non-residents who could have sneaked or stealthily brought in the area to manipulate the process and he noted that the use  of IDs would also prevent multiple voting by people from the other constituencies. Twinobusingye gave two reasons for her rejection, one was that many voters had either lost the cards or registered but they had not yet to picked them from the National Identification and Registration Authority- NIRA. The second reason was that many voters in the area were duped by some contestants to forfeit their cards as security after they had obtained bribes.
