    If Kenyans can financially transact via mobile phone, why can't they vote using the same platform? Any guesses? Plse RTpic.twitter.com/A8VVXMH5DB

        Bwana Mkubwa electronic vote can't guarantee data protection. Because in essence that exercise aims to be secret. Cheers. J-L K

        Simple: Self-destructing "who voted for who" link but single voter enforced along with votes counting in real-time.

        If done on ussd or app, candidates order just needs to be random for each vote request. No way to reverse engineer, even from mnos

        Ideally if we can like the French exercise which will take place tomorrow. Wrap up everything within 24 hours. The more we delay, suspicion

        Now, that works in Europe, probably not in Africa. I maintain voting ussd/app with self-distructing traces is the right way, politics aside

        Wouldn't that limit voting to those with mobile phones? Or do you assume plural voting methods?

        If one can't afford to open a book, read write and construct a correct sentence do you expect him/her to switch on a smartphone and use it?

        There is no solid reason why not. There is no reason why we cannot have an elections-only WAN for online voting either.

        The same reason they cant vote using their ID cards. They have to register.

        Also, forget MPesa. We have e-Citizen and tasks that used to take a day now take minutes. I wondered why voting wasn't on e-Citizen.

        I like your bold ideas, and the "can do" mentality! Only when we stretch our imagination can we make these dreams a reality.
