@Bob, @Waita A big-up for Safaricom for putting pressure on IEBC to ensure their technical/ICT systems are in order. If we want to reform our electoral institution, I think this is the way to go - as opposed to disbanding them :-) I hope you get IEBC to use the Results Transmission System so that we can know the winner by the time we take dinner this friday evening. walu. ~~~~~ The electoral commission has formed a technical team to negotiate with Safaricom, after the latter pulled out of a contract for live transmission of results for the Makueni by-election. Leading mobile provider Safaricom announced it had pulled out of the deal with the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) over confidence issues with the level of preparedness of the commission for the Makueni senatorial by-election. http://www.nation.co.ke/News/IEBC-acts-to-avert-Safaricom-exit-from-poll-con...
