We need positive contributions And constructive ARGUMENTS NOT NOISE MAKERS.

Merit:
Reduce rigging

Demeri:
Limited people number likely to vote

Card reader battery may die before all is accredited

Card reader may malfunction

Card reader may not even be used if a different card reader is sent to the wrong polling unit

Delay in accreditation due to the use of card reader may make many go home before voting commence

Election can still be rigged if the people buys the inec official though unlikely, but nothing is impossible in Nigeria

Why the Presidency and the PDP are fighting the use of card readers for the 2015 general elections
March 11, 2015.
The presidency and PDP have relentlessly fought the use of card readers for the 2015 general election. While they are still fighting to stop the use of card readers, it is pertinent to understand the role of the card reader in the 2015 general election so that one will be better informed on why the PDP does not want the use of card readers for the 2015 general election. It is also important to analyze some previous results of former presidential elections where the PDP allegedly won.
What the card reader will do:
1. The card reader will authenticate only cards that were produced and issued by INEC
2. The card reader will automatically send the number of accredited voters from each polling unit to the INEC data at the national office
3. The card reader will prevent impersonation of voters
The figures obtained from the vote cast in 2011 presidential election from the South east and south south
States No. of reg voters. Party Votes Won % of # of votes cast
Anambra 1,758,220 PDP 1,145,169 98.96%
Enugu 1,301,185 PDP 802,144 98.54%
Akwa Ibom 1,714,781 PDP 1,165,629 94.58%
Imo 1,611,715 PDP 1,381,357 97.98%
Ebonyi 876,249 PDP 480,592 95.57%
Bayelsa 472,389 PDP 504,811 99.63%
Abia 1,481,191 PDP 1,175,984 98.96%
Delta 1,900,055 PDP 1,378,851 98.59%
Rivers 2,419,057 PDP 1,817,762 98.04%
The results above showed that there were over 95% turn out of voters in all the states in the South east and South south in the 2011 presidential election. This was against the generally accepted 50% turn out of voters by local and international observers for the same election. It is also worthy to not that no governorship, senatorial election and House of representatives election recorded up to 60% turn out of voters even though more voters turned out for the later elections than the presidential election.
To buttress the fact, in Imo state, the governorship election in 2011 was keenly contested and the votes scored were as follows; Rochas Okorocha polled a total of 336,859 votes to defeat Governor Ikedi Ohakim of the Peoples Democratic Party , PDP , who came a distant second with 290,496 votes. The total votes for the two 627,358. This is against the 1,381,357 recorded for President Jonathan in Imo state in the presidential election with a lower turn out of voters compared to the governorship election.
With the use of the card reader, there will not be addition of votes to any candidate as the number of accredited voters will be sent directly to INEC database in Abuja which will be compared with the numbers recorded in all polling units. By that these kind of magic figures generated by Goodluck Jonathan in 2011 will be curbed.
ON THE USE OF CARD READER WE STAND

Comrade Jasper Azuatalam
Chairman, Buhari Vanguard

All I see about this card reader is merits. I can't see any demerit. Those kicking against the use of card reader has rigging as their only hope. let us all support the use of card reader because INEC want to return power to the electorates which is how it should be. Both GEJ and his PDP are all aware of the use of card reader in this coming elections. Billions were approved by the national Assembly and made available to INEC after GEJ signed. so must we waste those billions because of one man's interest? For me, I won't waste my time going to vote again without the use of this card reader.

There is rarely and election with 99/100% turnout by voters yet people celebrated this fraud in 2011 because it was Jonathan. We are wiser, and now we see through his shallow scheming. There will be no further election delay and the card readers will reveal the true extent of APC support in the south East and south south.
