Electronic Transmission Of Election Results Is Not Theoretical by helinues(op): 6:55am On Feb 11

In reference to the thread above

I was in Kenya when they first made use of it. Infact I followed the supreme court rulings after the election which was eventually nullified.

Though there are poor , little or no preparation for it towards the 2027 election but if it's something we really want to adopt, it can work effectively.

From the polling units, if all agents signed on the election results and transmitted instantly by the RO, that will kill any moves for rigging as the polling unit results would be the final which all will be collated at the INEC national tallying Center not local government, constituency or state tallying Center. That's a long process

As the results are being transmitted from the polling units, figure with the attached election results, it should reflect on INEC portal in real time which all political parties can use to collate the results. Though 100% shouldn't be expected

Get serious for once or I go block you.

Those are the conversations you people at the opposition missed. It's the same comment above you had wasted ,3 years making without discussing important things.

Election is a year plus, you guys as normal tradition now remember to take your country back

Eish

I remember that after 2020 election in America, Donald Trump was defeated and he was furious and then claimed the election was rigged. Elections in America are transmitted electronically yet there were complaints. If the election was actually rigged in America in spite of the use of electronic why can't it he rigged in Nigeria? If the election was not rigged and Trump was crying foul, do you think whoever loses in Nigeria will not cry foul too? Think about it

Trump is always crying foul. That's his default settings

Even though I really want it baldy for the 2027 election results to be transmitted directly from the polling unit which should be the final results to collate at the INEC national tallying centre, unfortunately there are little, poor preparation or or no preparation at all for it.

Our senators have already shown their directions considering their body language. Even if it's eventually admitted, there would be loopholes with it

The opposition supposed to have been the one taking this up immediately after the 2023 election

I created a thread about it before the 2023 election, the opposition supporters on that thread was just doing their as usual behavior. That shouldn't be the work of those who support this government so I can't fight for the opposition in this. Sorry

We should be preparing for it fully after the 2027 election

Time will tell . The same electronic voting that is being criticized where it's being practiced. I am sure 💯 after election some people are coming to complain again.

Nobody is saying Nigeria should forget about E transmission and infact, the Senate bill did not stop e transmission. It's like some people are just talking and criticizing without knowing what the bill is all about.
I am however sure some are coming here again to wail. No system is perfect.
Take a look

If the election would be rigged with the above quote, then the candidate should blame his party agents as that process already eliminate rigging except compromise

“What is the meaning of real time? We are not voting electronically in Nigeria, the word ‘real time’ in this context is actually superfluous. It doesn’t on its own give you a transparent election.

“The primary evidence of who won an election is the EC8A. INEC compels presiding officers to transmit the result to IREV. That is good enough for us.”

Real time is like sending data to a server which should be available mins after uploading. The election results sheet with the agent signed will be attached as well to the portal

But losers will still complain. Take for instance, any court judgment that doesn't favour politicians is a coup on dedemocracy. The one that favours them is a victory for democracy

A situation where a party is popular in a particular area and both the INEC officials and all part agents agree to change the figures nkor?

Why should all party agents agreed to rig the election. That's why I said the candidate should have himself to be blamed. If they have taken care of their agents, they would reject bribing

We should understand that anything not in their favour must have been manipulated. Such blackmailing shouldn't be working on us again

No Matter How An Election is Conducted - be it electronic transmission or whatever, the losers will always cry foul.. at least in 90-95% cases.

In 2019 I was in an European country when they conducted their state elections.. even with the transparent/excellent voting system, the election was cancelled for no cogent reason and election redone.. guess what the candidate that won the previous election won again even greater margin.

Opposition will always cry foul when they lose and celebrate when they win.. the bitter truth about elections.
