[kictanet] Voter register on OpenData

[Evans Ikua]

Thats right John, and a good question too from Robert. Maybe this is an
opportunity for an enterprising person to put this data online using the
open data initiative. I am assuming that the IEBC can avail the basic info
or voter register. This could be very critical information to a person
conducting campaigns (and probably opinion polls) and would probably pay
for it.
