It could be explained away using transcription errors. Because she compares the announced result at Bomas and the transmitted totals. The data does not sync because it is arrived at from different sources.
That said, the more the reason for IEBC to release everything digital and physical related to this election without any unnecessary delay.
It seems all the errors tend to increase the number of voters. Never reducing them. If you remember the declaration, every county had more voters than on the register except four.
I think they are fighting a losing battle to keep under the Total number of votes cast.It could be explained away using transcription errors. Because she compares the announced result at Bomas and the transmitted totals. The data does not sync because it is arrived at from different sources.

In this particular instance I would not have issue with the difference per se. But rather its size. A 30% difference is eye popping and moves from the territory of transcription errors into criminal negligence.
I also can't explain why the declared results all showed more registered voters than the voter register in every county except four that matched the register. Isn't there a fixed number for each polling station? It's not even clear why one would get any amount of error in this figure. Why would anyone be "calculating" this number?
Let me get this. The results were announced to local agents before submission to IEBC. Where do these different numbers come from?I think they are fighting a losing battle to keep under the Total number of votes cast.
