The Fijian Elections Office has updated their FEO mobile App to give a breakdown of statistics based on their administrative areas.
Supervisor of Elections Mohammed Saneem says they have done this to accommodate queries being raised by the public over the confusion in divisional boundaries they covered.
He says the updated FEO mobile app will clarify the number of votes that were received from the different divisions around the country.
“We will keep both the updates on the app because right now there is a quick reaction to these things and we would like to ensure that both are there so people do not jump the gun and say something is wrong, something has changed. We will keep both for a while and probably later on we will take down the FEO administrative boundaries and keep it to the Government boundaries.”
Saneem adds that they used the FEO administrative areas to view the results.
“The government boundaries for North is the whole of Vanua Levu and Taveuni and for the Eastern Division it is the Islands and Nausori. But for FEO the Eastern Division covers from Tavua right down to Nausori. This is where we will be giving you the distribution of the data based on the government distribution of boundaries.”
Meanwhile, Saneem has also given his assurance that the 8894 elections officials will receive their pay on time.
