Somaliland election commission is playing games.

Recommended Posts

Somaliland election  commission should announce and  tell people the preliminary results. 

 

They have done a great job, but this chairman and his side kicks must know that it is about time people see the early results from polling stations.This is not 2010 or even 2013, the Iris bio-metric system is efficient  and it would be unusual for the early results to change. IN most elections, were vote counting takes place in the actual poling station, the results are already known. Their main task is official recount at the district level and resolutions of the disputed boxes. 

 

Because of the bio-metric nature of the system it will difficult to falsify votes or staffing of boxes. THe biggest incidents so far are people of Authority or in this case the Kulmiye government sequestering and stealing opposition boxes. In Hargeisa, the mayor, by the strange name of Solteco, with his uniformed body guards had taken some boxes claiming to be disputed boxes  and transferring to the commission. In Gabiley the city rule and governing had collapsed long ago, most of the residents had moved to Borama, Hargeisa and Wajaale. Waddani "Muraaqibiin" are denied to escort the boxes to the district, if this is true this boxes must be either disqualified or investigated. During the last municipal election, Gabiley politicians and  criminals took all the ballot boxes to unknown place and divided the city counsel cities among themselves. What they do not tell you is there are large Awdalites in north Gbiley, Ceel Bardaale , Bus, Kalabaydh and Wajaale, yet their votes were looted.

 

The commission guy keeps repeating that the official counts at polling station level  could change. This fool must know that unless disputed by anyone, the polling station counts given to the party representatives should not change that much. If a party gets 2300 votes in certain station that result may reverse few votes if those who were counting made mistakes.

 

The commission chairman must not prolong the official announcement to another four days. He must release the early preliminary vote counts done by district level, unless he is cooking something. 

 

 

 

We need the early results. 

 Waxbaa dhacayo iyo masiibadan aad ku celeclinayso looma baahnee, shaqadaada qabso oo halka ay wax marayaan noo sheeg. Mise wax aad karinaysaa oo jawaan lacag ah ayaa ina Aw saciid kuu balan qaaday?

Also, you can not talk to specific media people who could be biased. Your only communication with public is official public address where everyone in the media is present. We know Hargeisa was counted already. What you doing is verifying the polling station results at the district or Hargeisa level. 

 

We know how many each party got through the party representative. Changes from the early results should be small.

as I said in the other election thread, the longer you wait, the more problems, and the more it is easier to steal.

 

GEES  kuleey ba lagu jaraa.

 

As for rigging, NO SYSTEM is theftproof.

I understand the concerns. But from what I am hearing, the political parties have done their own numbers and know their own totals.

 

There are a number of disputed results which is currently being recounted as soon as the boxes arrive in the regional capitals. From what I have heard,  Sanaag, Sool, Sahel & Togdheer regions are all closed and done with. It is only Awdal and Hargeisa which have few districts in dispute.

 

If all goes well, the result is said to be announced somewhere in the afternoon today or earlier tomorrow morning. 

 

The NEC will hold a press conference again today to clarify things.

Qof iyo cod waa arin wanaagsan

Balse waxaan wanaagsanayn in reer awdal iyo reer sool sadex nin oo isku beela lagu amro inay kala doortaan, ayagoo darajada labaad kasii hooseeya,waxayna hoos u dhigaysaa qayimka aadanaha.

 

waxaa u wanaagsanayd aragtidayda, mar hadday noqdeen qoryo ma shidmaan xaabo la'aan, loona ogalayn inay hogaan ka noqdaan xisbiyada beesha dhexe, inay is bahaystaan oo xisbi samaystaan tartankana sidaas ku galaan, ayagoo matalaya beesha shanaad.

Yaa ku yidhi looma ogola?  Somaliland cid wax laga hor jooga ma jirto. Ragga sadexda ah, qof hadiyad loo siiyay ma jiro inu madax u noqdo xisbi. Nin walbaa tab iyo xeel iyo xiniinyo ayu ku soo baxay.  Qofna inu isago casiir iska cabaaya ku riyoodo inu madaxnodo, waa inu barkinta iska dheeraysto oo riyoda iskaga jiro. 

 

Laakin hadii aad nolosha aad doonaysid inaad meel ka gaadho waa inaad la timaadid tab iyo xeelsheed sida raga aad soo sheegtay ee sadexda ah. 

 

Tobankii sano mar ayaa la fura Urur siyaasadeedka oo qof walba u furantay inu ka qayb qaato Doorashada golaha deegaanka. Ilaa 10 URUR ayaa 2012 wada orday, sadexda hada jira ayaa ka soo dhex baxay. Intii kale waa rabeebay.

Arinta riyaale waa mowduuc kale.

 

Mar walba waxaa is indho diida ilma adeerada waana dhaqan soomaalidu ka siman tahay

 

Snm waxay go'aan ku gaareen inay riyaale dhex-dhexaad ka dhigtaan si aysan isigu dhicin dhexdooda.

 

Waa caqli fiican runtiina daawo u noqday waxayna la mid ahayd sida hadda hargaysa ka muuqata oo kale

 

Ama si kale haddaan kuugu fududeeyo waxay ula jeedeen ushaada ninkaad ka qaadan karto yaa loo dhiibtaa,walow uu nin adag ku noday oo si dhib badan ay isaga furfureen.

 

Suldaan

Aduunkoo dhan waa ogyahay somaali ceebteedu waa qabiilaysi wayna ku qaran iyo qawmiyad beeleen.

 

Baarlabaanka ingiriisku waa ogyahay in sadexda musharax beel kaliya kasoo jeedaan lamana inkiri karo xusbiyadanu waa magac u yaal la iib gaynayo

 

Waxaa haboonayd inta aqoonsiga raadintiisa lagu gudo jiro, inay beelaha kalena xisbiyo samaystaan,ayagoo waliba og in laga guulaysanayo mar hadaysan mujaahidiin lahayn ama soo yeelan.

 

Aragtidayda way ka macno fiicanaan lahayd in sanduuq reer dhigtay ay kala doortaan iyo inay karaamo wax ku doortaan.

The commission chairman could not explain how these stamped books ended up in the streets of Hargeisa and possession of the citizens.

 

Here is how citizens got these pages or full books of ballots:

 

After their single ballot was stamped and they proceeded to the ballot box, Many Kulmiye supporters, especially party operatives pulled these  pages from their hidden pockets and filled  the boxes with these pre-stamped and printed papers.

 

These papers were printed in UAE and given to Kulmiye operatives. Some decent people who were given these papers could not do the unthinkable actions of stealing and lying, and provided to the Waddani officials about these crimes.

 

According to Waddani officials, these papers were found in Gabiley , Hargeisa, Berbera and Borama.

 

Despite all these rigging, Kulmiye might still lose the election.

 

All you have to do is implement forensic investigation to  match the actual voters in every poling station and the people that registered in that place. By average every region has lost between 15-20% registered voters who took their cards.

 

If Gabiley had higher voter turnout than other places, then investigate.  Further more , before people proceeded to vote, their name should be on the voter list in that same station.  It is easy to find out who did vote and who did not. The voting card put by the voters must match those who checked the voter list. As was advertised, voters could only vote in the district they registered. If 300 people showed up and voted while checking their names in the voter list, these boxes must only contain 300 ballots. If these boxes were stuffed by Kulmiye voters with extra book, that should be detected.

 

The election commission should listen to the complaints  and investigate these issues. Why their election ballot books are in the hands of stranger?.

 

Despite all these issue,  Waddani could win. I heard the lead of Waddani is small with few thusand and these stuffed ballots from Gabiley could tip the balance.

 

It is really strange. Despite their crimes of looting  the public purse, selling the public schools to the highest bidders, I thought they will be disapearing to Dubai or London where they have hidden millions. 

 

Isma lahayn intay soo indha adeygan ayey ummaddan nacday ee maalamaha tirinaysay ayey ku soo noqonayaan.

Waraaqaha nimaka daabacay  hore ayaa looga hadlay oo dhaqaalaha ololaha Kulmiye lacag badan bay ku bixiyeen si ay u illashadaan " Berbera contract".

 

If there is no voter list in every polling station, then this whole process was misleading. They said that it is bio-metric that matches the vote, the ID and the registered voter list.

 

I knew there was something wrong when they told people that they must take their ID card within two weeks or that card will be lost for ever. These Id cards should have been kept in major centers and people could come when they have time. If you were sick, traveling or nomad out of reach, your registered Id is taken by the commission. 

 

If the election is away two or three months why not give ample time to come and collect their cards. It was a crooked strategy to disenfranchise thousands of people who hated the ruling oligarch.

Galbeedi, thanks for your input, I think it is going to be ELECTION re-run,  It may be too costly, but that  is the only way to get  a credible election, with new election commission. This one is  tainted, and will break apart SL.

 

I know for fact there were IDs being distributed on the day of the election, how is the possible?  these are not fake IDs, but real ones, and officials who kept the cards, knew who the cards were for, go directly to the person it was for, mostly nomadic illiterate,  and put them on car, bribed and asked them to vote for them

This was supposed to be the most sophisticated and fraud-proof election in East Africa and by the looks of it, not much has changed from the old cheating days. 

 

Unacceptable.

      Jubaland; Although being a relatively new state in terms of Somalia's independence seems as if its in search of pure and utter autonomy.
      But the question is why? Can Somalia ever surrender its southern coast and second largest port to Kenya?
      Though let's be honest, in terms of independence, Jubaland's urge and determination in search of self-governance and pure sovereignty can only mean WAR and DISASTER up North. This would mean Somaliland would need to fight even harder for recognition. Not only will the air up north be rigged in deep pessimism, but Jubaland's stance for independence will ruin the dream, that of course....never was-

      The chairman said , " all 1600 polling stations had submitted their results and have been counted".
       
      Dhamaan waa la soo wada tiriyey oo degmooyinkii ay ka baxeen ayey ku soo noqdeen".
       
      They have to go through the second stage of counting at the district level if thee is dispute.
       
      By Monday night everyone including the public could have got the results. 
       
      Here is how this election could have been finished or early results released Friday.
       
      Here are the rules stated by the commission itself:
       
      Here are the rules of  the election commission which was stated before the  election.
       
       Here is what the chairman said:
       
      First , " Marka lixda maqribnibaha codbixinta  sidaa loo xidho ,goob walba oo cod laga bixiyey waxa jooga oo qol lagu soo xidhaya afar qof oo komishinka ka tirsan oo tirinaya iyo muraaqibiinta saddexda xisbi  qaran u jooga goobaha, marka ay tirinta dhameeyaan , waxa ay ku dhawaaqi doonaan natiijada hordhaca ah ee goob kasta, komishinkuna waxa ay ku dhwaaqi doonaan natiijada hordhaca ah"
       
      "As soon as the polls close at 6pm , the four members of the election commission and the three reps (Muraaqibiin) of the parties will be closed in a room and they will start counting.  After they finished counting,  everyone including the party reps will be given the results of every polling station and the preliminary results of every station will be announced".
       
      My friends that was the rule. The early elections , especially those held by Daahir Rayaale administration, there were no voter lists or even bio-metric cards. People counted what ever they found in the boxes and no counting had taken place in the rural or village level. All boxes were brought to the district level, and usually it took five to six days.
       
      This election was different. Just like in most western nations the system was designed to release the early results  at that same night. Since each of those 1600 hundred polling stations had the same staff and rules of counting, all results could have been known Monday night.
       
      Do not be fooled  by the commission statements that " since Hargeisa is huge place it will take longer to count". Of course it will take more time after you bring all boxes from over three hundred polling stations, but at polling level you have exact same staff. If Awdal had over hundred  polling stations,  HArgeisa had double. That means every station has the ability to count and send it's results Monday night. The so called 200,000 hargeisa voters are spread out to hundred of polling station.
       
      The problem is as soon as the early results came out the commission decided not to announce , but use delaying tactics and pretend nothing has been counted yet  " Hargeisa oo degmo weyn ah weli lama tirin" was an excuse used. He did tell that, but  it was already counted, but he should have said that all results are in , and what remains is double checking of the results.
       
      Saeed Cali Muuse is the protegee of Mr Adami , the defense minister who was  the election chairman in 2003. Mr. Muuse, the man who said nothing of concern had  happened , is one of those hungry diaspora members who is probably willing to cash in.
       
      Insiders are telling us that the day the East Burco and West Burco community reached agreements to cooperate and build brotherly and neighborly situation  in their regions, Kulmiye had panicked and started fraud mechanism to steal the election. Ahmed Siilaanyo won over 70% of Togdheer, yet now it seems  Waddani  is leading. Even Some Suldaans from West Hargeisa had threatened the East Burco guys demanding the it's their turn and they must give the " Hagbad" to Kulmiye. 
       
      There are huge forces that would not allow change of government. The cable company of ina Aw Said,  which is financed by Djibouti banks had spent millions to keep the monopoly. Reliable sources said that in Awdal alone he spent $450,000 dollars. His representatives in Awdal had bought thousands of cards. He paid and moved people from Djibouti and gave them those  cards he bought from Awdal. His reps were chased from Rays Hotel and other places openly buying cards from poor people. 
       
      Dubai World Ports and UAE would not accept any renegotiation or cancelling of their  military base. The war in Yemen is getting bad,  but  the UAE is concentrating to keep South Yemen and Aden in their hands. They even refused the relocation of President Maansour Hadi from Jeddah  to Aden.  
       
      I want to conclude that this election result could have been known just like in most places in the world, and if there was any disputes , recounting would have taken place. 
       
      Why take six days or even three days?. I think this commission has created a mess. 
       
      If they have announced the result Tuesday Morning everyone would have swallowed and moved on. If there is dispute, then do recounts. Yet, they tried to be in the news and make useless news conferences to be irrelevant. Rater than act quickly and and get out of the stage, they decided to make  the burden of proof bigger. Why even have spokes person. 
       
      You done your job, people had voted, then announce and disappear. Mr. Iman has created a mess and he does not know how to get out of this mess.

      In the evening of November 15 most of the polling stations in Awdal had reports their preliminary election results. Other than the main city of Borama the average was between 10,000 to 13,000. Some places had less than 7,000 votes. Since every station had election officials and party reps the results were easy to to pass to the parties and district commissioners. Logic and basic math tell us that to count few thousand votes does not take half a day , so by the evening of November 15, almost all Awdal votes were in.
       
      Personally I did talk  a waddani activist here and he did call someone in Borama and they told him  excatly results by station and district. He was exited with the victory and said the margins are between 65-71%, . 
       
      Now read this report from local journalist describing what happen and how things changed after the boxes are brought to Borama. Within 24 hours , Muuse Biixi demanded recount of all boxes and the result that was indicating Waddani leading 30,000 became 15,000 ,and as we speak right now it is only 1650. 


      Borama(SBN)Mawjadaha waddaniyiinta Reer Awdal ayaa maalintii isniitii u dareeray si ay cududooda u muujiyaan iyagoo dhiibanaaya codka doorashada madaxtinimo ee dalka, Markii codadku soo xidhmeen cabaar 9 kii habeenimo xiliga geeska afrika waxaa soo kala cadaatay dhamaan codadka gobolka Awdal , kuwaasi oo dhamaantood gudoomiyayaasha goobaha ee xisbiga WADDANI soo gudbiyeen tirada codadka xisbigu ka helay goobahaasi , tirooyinka la soo gudbiyey marka la bar bar dhigo kuwa KULMIYE ka helay waxaa kala horeeyeen 60% waddani ku hogaminaayo halka 37% kulmiye ka haystay 3% ucid ah.
