Pakistan Election Day: 11 May 2013, updates.

Lead was by few hundred votes.. Thats nothing for a constituency with lakhs of voters. Looks like the intial wave was PTI in many places but the final swing will have PML-N leading by margins..

Yaar Yeh Pak hai yahan par votes thousands main tu ho sakte hain aik candidate keh par lakhon main nahi lol lol

Yeh India Nahi lol

Punjab goes to punjabi taggay. Imran's PTI was not predicted to form govt but if they win even 40 seats it will be a big step

EVMs are in use but in limited numbers.. though in a few years they will replace the ballots..

We have computerized ID Cards and passports why not use technology? i can give a simple example of course it cannot be implemented completely as it is but it gives a basic idea how technology can be implemented;

- A person goes to polling booth.

- Presents his ID card to the person incharge to verify his details. (this step can be optional)

- He goes to the voting machine and puts his card in a card reader attached to the voting machine

- He gets his finger print scanned by an inexpensive digital reader

- The card information and the finger print is analyzed by a computer and after a positive match is found a touch screen shows the list of party symbols.

- He clicks on the name or symbol of his party and his voting is done

- Optionally a paper is printed with the choice he selected on the screen and he puts in the ballot box as a backup for verification if needed.

In this way even the counting is easy. As it will be done electronically. Final official results can be announced within couple of hours. No chance for bogus votes during elections or counting.

Just by implementing technology, we can save on costs related to printing ballot papers, employing staff and arranging for the logistics, quick results and very importantly no bogus votes.

What do you all think?
