By Peter Wanyama - advocate of the High Court in the defense of IEBC.
10 simple reasons about the 2022 Presidential elections
1. On the IEBC portal form 34A shows the polling station it came from. The same Form 34A that is posted at the polling station. The system rejects forms that have different coding from the polling station code.
1A. The system only accepts a form from a registered polling stations and only from registered Kiems kit that contains a particular sim card. If someone attempts to use an unregistered sim card in the Kit, the system automatically rejects the form. It is not correct to say that someone somewhere uploaded forms into the portal.
2. IEBC has the originals of all the 34As except from one polling station in Wajir where the PO was attacked and form 34A destroyed. But earlier he had submitted the scanned copy to the portal.
3. The Supreme Court Act requires IEBC to submit certified copies of all form 34As to the Supreme Court within 48 hours after filing of the Petition.
4. The forms in the portal are used for verification and public consumption. Anyone can use them and tally the results. They are NOT submitted to the Supreme Court.
5. There were attempts to hack the Results Transmission System but they all failed because of massive firewalls. IEBC will provide system pe*******on reports to the Supreme Court . More than unsuccessful 100 attempts were made to hack the system.
6. The servers auto-populated the details of the identification of voters . The logs will be provided to the Supreme Court. Where there is a variance, the same can be explained using 'rejected ballots.' For example, in Kiambu the data in Kiems kit tallies with the votes for President and Governor etc. There is no outlying data. The social media narrative is pure hogwash.
7. IEBC has secured the system to ensure no one interferes with the data todate.
8. There are fake forms in the social media. IEBC has authentic forms will all security feature
