[kictanet] electronic results Referendum system..

[Barrack Otieno]

Listers,

I hope the success is 'Institutionalised' and  is not a sporadic wave as has
been the case before :-), this is the only way it can be replicated,
otherwise thumbs up to the IIEC and all who made it possible for the
referendum to succeed.

Best Regards
