makes me freakin wonder why the cross check of fingerprints was not done at an earlier stage of this process . . . the database is actually quite small
I remember being concerned about APNU and the AFC and their degree of organization to deal with this very problem.
Folks like you called me "negative".
Well as we get closer to the election and see more evidence of the vulnerability of the results to assorted forms of PPP manipulation, do people plan t0 mount the moral high horse if the PPP squeaks in a win, because they manufactured 20k "votes?" We all knew the desperation of the PPP so why the shock.
I would have thought that Nagamootoo would have moved to ascertain the accuracy of the lists BEFORE he moved to MONC. In any case there have been several months since parliament was prorogued, and so that should have been time enough to demand a test the list. If GECOM wasn't up to the task then the opposition should have demanded the list and done their own checks.
But I already hear the wails if the PPP wins. Short of furnishing irrefutable PROOF of rigging, the results will be certified and the observers will claim that there any irregularities were insufficient to change the results.
All they can do is observe the voting process. Just as how the PPP hides its bribes so they aren't fully obvious their attempts to rig will also be harder to detect on the day of the poll.
