[kictanet] Voter register on OpenData

[eonchari at lynxbits.com]

I think raw data is what would be illegal to publish. 2nd/3rd level analyzed data such as number of males between age x and y in polling constituency W; number of registered female voters by age and by county  that turned up on voting day, etc can be published...there is nothing confidential with that sort of analyzed data.

   You mean even the registration numbers? Maybe the personal info can be confidential, but I thought there is a certain level of info that can be public info. Just my thoughts. Maybe this would even help openness and transparency?

 i doubt you can have an open voter register. I would personally probably have an issue if my voter information was 'opened up' That is quite a bit of personal information. a statistical analysis of the data like how many voters, from where, maybe their age groups might make its way there, but with the iebc so busy I doubt that will happen before the elections....

  Hi,

Does anyone out there know if the new electronically acquired voter register is available in electronic data or on the Open Data platform?
