<p class="MsoNormal">folks,<br>
<br>
i dont know about you but am totally blown away by the affordability and simplicity of the electronic results system currently in use at Bomas. I mean, think about it, a mobile phone of less than 30USD and an SMS message of less than 1USD and some piece software
and you get results securely checked into a central server, tallied and and instantly relayed to the public.
<br>
<br>
This to me is eGovernance without the usual big budgets and subsequent failure that often accompanies ICT projects...more importantly I want to believe, this is the beginning of how elections will be conducted in future.<br>
