        Readiness is purely conjectural. Each side of the contest believes their position will carry the day. Chair of IEBC is if two minds: Yes/NO!

        One. This is a fresh presidential election and not a re-run. Two, we are not ready because the IEBC itself confessed its unpreparedness.

        You can't blame the preparedness or otherwise of IEBC on the judicial ruling. The judiciary rules based on what's presented before it.
