Bawumia confirms that these pink sheet exhibits have been quadrupled but adds that they were entered only once in the analysis. Who believes in his analysis he can go and tell that to the dogs!!!!!!!! who cares?
Are we not witnesses to the shoddy and weak analysis from the first petition where percentages of voters were more than a 100%. A mistake an SHS will not commit.
Why must we TRUST his analysis this time around and believe it’s solid. His weak mathematics should be thrown at him to concede. He must be made to admit to the first porous analysis. He is only trying to prove stubborn I don’t see him as intelligent a whole Dr. tweaaa kai.
Which one comes first, the data capture or the data analysis? Bawumia is telling us have faith in his analysis but not his Data this is ridiculous.

It seems some people are refusing to understand what is going on at the SC or polities is making them blind. Please, there are two ways of counting the claim by the petitioners which NDC or the EC has failed so far to do.

(1) NDC or EC would have to compile their results (from the 11,000+ pink sheets) by removing the duplicated pink sheets for the court which will counter DR.Bawuwia claim if they think that will have any effect on his (Bawumia's ) results.

(2) NDC or EC should accept the irregularities/violations and go on to compile results of polling stations ( not captured by the petitioners) where Nana Akufo-Addo won with this irregularities/violations to prove that they occurred randomly and not intentional.

I am afraid no one from the North needs any complements from anyone and your explanation does not wash! Do you realise how condescending that very historical definition you have given is? That "they were so honest that people preferred to employ them as watchmen". So what do you do? you label them "pepenyi" instead of calling individuals by their own names.

How would you and your ilk feel if your whole tribe or creed were given a particular label and called as such instead of your real name? Would you regard that as a compliment? The age of this nonsense has to come to an end and I will resolutely condemn the continued mischaracterisation of people of all tribes and racial stereotypes.

Updated: Tue, 30 Apr 2013 15:28:53 GMT | By Joan Bryden, The Canadian Press, thecanadianpress.comIrregularities rife in 2011 election: report

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OTTAWA - The integrity of Canada's electoral process is at "serious risk" due to rampant procedural errors made by polling officials, a report commissioned by Elections Canada says.

The report blames overly complex rules and poorly trained polling officers for "serious errors" in 54 per cent of the paperwork filled out during the 2011 federal election for electors who needed to prove their eligibility to vote.

The report, by former British Columbia chief electoral officer Harry Neufeld, includes the results of a national audit of the documentation filled out for electors whose names were not on the list of registered voters or who failed to bring the required identification with them to their polling stations.

In those cases — about 15 per cent of electors — polling officials were required to administer special procedures, such as the swearing of oaths or having someone vouch for the voter's identity.

The audit found serious errors — the kind that can lead courts to overturn election results — in 12 per cent of voter registration paperwork and in 42 per cent of vouching paperwork.

"The audit indicates that the applications of specific legal safeguards, in place to ensure each elector is actually eligible to vote, were seriously deficient in more than 165,000 cases due to systemic errors made by election officials," the report says.

On average, that amounts to more than 500 serious administrative errors in each of Canada's 308 ridings.

"Obviously, this is unacceptable," Neufeld concludes. "Aside from legal concerns, public trust in proper administration of the electoral process is at serious risk if these errors are not addressed."

Still, to keep the problems in perspective, the report notes that more than 12 million Canadians cast ballots on May 2, 2011, and irregularities occurred in only 1.3 per cent of the cases.

Elections Canada commissioned the report six months ago amid controversy over myriad procedural irregularities in the Toronto riding of Etobicoke Lakeshore.

Borys Wrzesnewskyj, the Liberal incumbent who lost in 2011 to Conservative Ted Opitz by a mere 26 votes, challenged the results in court. The Ontario Superior Court found the irregularities sufficiently widespread that it declared the result null and void.

However, the Supreme Court of Canada subsequently reversed that decision.

Neufeld says there are multiple causes of all the errors, among them the reality that "200,000 election officers need to be recruited and trained, most often for a single day's work that happens only once every few years."

That said, the "widespread consensus" among those interviewed by Neufeld was that the rules governing special voting procedures are much too complicated.

Over the long term, he says the entire voting services model needs to be overhauled. But since that can't be done in time for the next federal election in 2015, he suggests some interim steps be taken to simplify the process and ensure greater compliance with the rules.

Among other things, Neufeld recommends a campaign to encourage electors to ensure they're on the voters' list prior to election day; putting a supervisor in charge at every voting site; simplifying written instructions for poll officers and better training for election officials.

In a written response to the report, chief electoral officer Marc Mayrand accepts Neufeld's findings and says Elections Canada is working on solutions.

"The compliance review (by Neufeld) has highlighted the vital role that accuracy in electoral administration plays in public confidence in our electoral system and the results it produces," Mayrand says.

"Elections Canada agrees with Mr. Neufeld's finding that significantly improving rates of accuracy among election officers administering procedures on election day requires a fundamental redesign of the current voting services model."

Let's measure!" They measured and the girl said "Oh gosh, it is." They played some more and the boy said "My daddy can beat up your daddy!" The girl said "He can not!" The boy said "Can too! Watch!" The two fathers fight and the little boy's father wins. The girl says "Oh gosh, he can." They play some more and the little boy smiles and says "I've got something you don't have!" The little girl says "Do not!" The boy says "Do too! Look!" He pulls his pink pants down and shows her. The little girl starts crying and runs into her house because she keeps losing. A little while later she comes out with a big smile on her face. The little boy says "What are you so happy about?" The girl pulls up her pink dress and says "My mommy said as long as I have one of these, I can get as many of those as I want!"

THE NPP IS like the little boy showing everything he can get at the moment including his pink pants but the little girl is like the NDC who can get many of those pink panties and is already secured.

Bawumia is a disgrace for allowing these Akan Bastards to use him and make a ridicule of him on national TV.

The law is the law. The EC broke it so elections null and void. Ndc people are in denial.

Dr Bawumia is suffering from Obsessive compulsory disorder, this is exhibited by his inability to seat still during the proceedings instead he keeps rocking back and forth,

Why should an Npp communication team keep putting such misleading headlines on kine. Please we all watched your duplicates and triplicates. You guys are just wasting our time.

Tsatsu is now pointing out the errors also made by the NPP team which is equally a blow to the NPP who are ready to slay the EC for making errors and also considered every error as a constitutional and statutory violation.
However, when Tsatsu later touches on the issue of NPP having added as many as 10,000 pink sheets merely because their serial numbers were duplicated then NPP will start seeing the crumbling of their case.
If Bawumia claims that even though he has mistakenly duplicated the exhibit numbers, it has no effect on his analysis, so will Tsatsu also prove that duplicated pink sheet serial numbers are errors but have no effect on the results.

DR.BAWUMIA HAS PROVED THAT LAW IS LAW AND IF THE LAW IS BREACHED THEN IT IS BROKEN. HE HAS FAULTED THE EU FOR THAT. NOW SOME EXHIBITS PRESENTED BY THE PETITIONERS HAS SOME MISTAKES AND DUPLICATIONS BUT HE STANDS ON HIS GROUND TO DEFEND IT. JUSTICE ATUGUBA HAS POINTED THAT BAWUMIA HAS A PREVILIGE TO INCRIMINATE HIMSELF. DR. BAWUMIAH MAY DEFEND HIS LIES BUT AT THE END HE WILL SEE HIS FOLLY ATTITUDE

Which law is Bawumia's law? Is it Sharia Law or CI 75 which was read to the fool who thinks he knows the law?

It seems some people are refusing to understand what is going on at the SC or polities is making them blind. Please, there are two ways of countering the claim by the petitioners which NDC or the EC has failed so far to do.

(1) NDC or EC would have to compile their results (from the 11,000+ pink sheets) by removing the duplicated pink sheets for the court which will counter DR.Bawuwia claim if they think that will have any effect on his (Bawumia's ) results.

(2) NDC or EC should accept the irregularities/violations and go on to compile results of polling stations ( not captured by the petitioners) where Nana Akufo-Addo won with this irregularities/violations to prove that they occurred randomly and not intentional.

We are watching what is going on in the Supreme Court. Don't try to cover up. It is not going well for the NPP. Tell us the truth and let your supporters know the truth and nothing but the truth.
