On the other hand, this issue of Rejected Votes gives their complaints unnecessary merit. They were too significant to wish away, where did they all disappear to?
The IEBC should explain at the next press conference so small issues don't create grounds for litigation.
Given that not all ROs had reached the NTC and they were not arriving in accordance with the transmitted results order, why cant CORD wait for all the ROs to return, IEBC to tally the results and when the Rejected votes reduce in the final tally, then we can question them. How do you expect them to respond to half info. May be there are some areas where the rejected votes were much higher and they are yet to be captured..... just thinking.
Not forgetting it could actually be that all the rejected votes included those of the other positions (county reps, women representatives etc) given that they could have been put as a lumpsum so they do not necessarily show the 'rejected votes' for the presidential candidates only.
