ENTIKHABAT 98: IEC To Start Recounting Votes

The Independent Election Commission on Sunday said that it will start recounting votes in 34 provinces on Monday.

The commission on Saturday released new vote numbers, saying that the Dermalog company had identified 1,843,107 valid votes out of the 1,929,333 votes already transferred to the commission’s central database.

But election observers—primarily from Abdullah Abdullah’s electoral team-- did not accept the new statistics released by Dermalog and added that more than 137,000 originally-quarantined votes should not be included in the process.

In this episode, host Karim Amini discusses the topic with the following panelists:

• Qasim Elias, Independent Electoral Complaints Commission (IECC) commissioner

• Yousuf Rashid, head of the Transparent Election Foundation of Afghanistan (TEFA)

• Ajmal Hodman, a member of Ashraf Ghani’s electoral team

• Payenda Mohammad Hekmat, a member of Abdullah Abdullah’s electoral team
