Comment

The system had already been successfully used in previous elections, but the 2013 elections were the first in which the polling certificates were scanned and sent via internet to a computing centre in Asunci?n. 97% of the polling sites were equipped with a netbook and a scanner for the generation and transmission of digitalised results’ certificates. Once scanned by an officer of the TSJE and sent to the computing centre in Asunci?n, they were verified and then published on the web for the public to consult them. 3% of all the certificates, which include those of the voting from abroad and the polling sites with no internet access, had to be read out loud over the telephone.
