TIRANA, May 6/ATA/ The State Election Commissioner Ilirjan Celibashi and Deputy Commissioner Lealba Pelinku were today at the CEC premises in Lundër where the fingerprinting traces of the voters are being checked and verified in the electronic identification devices taken from the polling stations.
Speaking to the media, Commissioner Celibashi informed that currently there is taking place the data transfer to the central server of the Central Election Commission.
Celibashi said that, “This is the first phase of the whole data verification process that was taken during the voter identification process. After the first phase, copying the data to the central server, all the data will be cross-referenced on all the equipment used in the Polling Stations.
“Through the process of cross-checking the data, we will see if there will be cases of a voter voting in several different polling stations or within the same polling station.”
Citing a video posted on social media, Celibashi clarified that it had been said several times by both him and Deputy Commissioner Pelinku that the purpose of using this device was to record the fingerprints of all those who went to vote.
“Those who for various reasons have placed their finger several times on equipment or on various devices will be clearly identified and must be accountable to the competent authorities. To those who said that the device did not work, I tell you that the device worked, because the purpose was to identify the fingerprints that voters leave during the voting process “, said Celibashi./a.a/r.e/p.s./
