Muraya,

Does it point to Google from your end?

But what would be the motivation to move it now - at this time when people are eager to lay their hands on the documents?

I think it's deliberately shutdown to deny citizens some information. The website is hosted on Amazon (based on the DNS information) and I think the reason for this is for the resilience of Amazon hosting.

If anyone did not already download what they wanted from WWW.iebc.or.ke, the owners have decided to prevent that by deliberately shutting down the Amazon instance!

Hi Listers,

Been checking the IEBC website since Friday morning - Observing persistent outage of the main section www.iebc.or.ke (voter status section still reliably accessible voterstatus.iebc.or.ke). Not very good timing for service outages. Been hopeful the main site will be back sooner. 

Anyways am looking for the list of 11,155 polling stations without network coverage as per the attached summary. Supposedly it is on the website. Anyone with the itemised list?

Best regards
