The window for objections closed at 9pm on Friday, with the IEC saying there had been 36 lodged with it by that point. The GOOD Party’s Brett Heron said they had applied for condonation to submit a late objection over discrepancies between the numbers at the voting districts and those which were eventually displayed by the IEC.
He said the IEC engaged with service providers regarding the electoral process as part of election planning. As a result, the results system used during the election was specified, developed, tested and that process required the services of professional auditors who would audit the system to ensure that it would do what it was designed to do.
