verification process, the applicant’s election agents, election agents for other presidential candidates as well as election observers had full access to the original V11s and V23s with respect to the presidential election from which they could make notes as they required. 32. Ad Para 5.2 This is denied. 32.1. Transmission of results from polling stations, wards and constituencies is done manually. This is consistent with the provisions of s64(2) of the Electoral Act. The Electoral Commission had no server set up at the national command centre or anywhere else, on which results were sent and stored in real time as the applicant suggests. 32.2. His suggestion is also curious as it comes immediately after he avers that for close to two days the Electoral Commission’s staff were busy manually entering data from original V11 forms onto an excel spreadsheet. 32.3. As he has alleged the existence of a server, it is incumbent upon the applicant to prove his allegation. Again, he places no evidence before the court in respect of this issue. 33. Ad Para 5.3- 5.4 This is denied.
