TEGUCIGALPA.
The verification of more than 12 thousand acts with inconsistencies was to begin last night at National Institute of Vocational Training (INFOP) with the presence of movement delegates and other observers.
The special scrutiny was delayed because paradoxically some currents questioning the acts did not send their representatives on time, due to internet problems and because the National Electoral Council (CNE) preferred to train current representatives first.
The purpose of the review is to clarify a number of reasonable doubts that candidates are running for office through challenges.
Until yesterday, the CNE he had received 103 claims of which 15 corresponded to the Liberal Party; 53 in Freedom and Refoundation (Free) and 35 in the National Party, a source from the collegiate body reported.
The representative of one of the currents of the Free party, Cintia García, challenged 70 acts of the Ceiba, Tela, Jutiapa, Sparta, San Francisco and La Masica, department of Atlantis. “These are acts that were inflated, places where the load that was a thousand people appear two thousand votes,” he said. For his part, Juan Diego Zelaya, former candidate for mayor of the capital by the nationalist current Together We Can – by Maurice Oliva – challenged 153 acts of the Central District.
Today, at 12:00 pm, the deadline expires for candidates who are considered to be affected by alleged adulterations of the results to submit their writs.
There is another as yet unspecified number of acts that have already been scanned and disclosed but will be reviewed again if so determined by the full board of directors, said Marlon Ochoa, electoral co-director.
Vote by vote review
The process involves opening the suitcase and reviewing each vote and comparing it with the original closing minutes, with the ballot papers and if it is found that there are irregularities, the minutes will be annulled and drawn up. a new one. “All challenges will be dealt with by opening the electoral suitcase to explain to the retailers the electoral documents and make the appropriate crossings,” said Councilor Rixi Monada.
“We have a little more than twelve thousand acts that present problems, which the system has rejected because they have different types of errors: in the balance, in the total sum, it does not square the number of ballots sent with the number of voters, d ‘others that exceed their voting volume “.
