Elections are held and winners announced. Taxpayer did not prove successful for most of his own money promised, but needed a victory valimissüteemi build.
We arrived early naljakuu situation in which foreign observers showed weaknesses in electronic voting, and TV-'eyewitness' was explained to viewers of the Constitutional Review Chamber of the Supreme Court to three members, but nevertheless the situation was not changed. This can be understood, as all officers are present alalhoiuinstinkt and a desire to continue working in their presence. Finally, after all, they have no difference which party program, people will pay them a salary.
After complaints about electronic voting and the rejection of the solutions I thought of reading the situation in the 16th May 2008, the Supreme Court declared unconstitutional and invalid, the provisions of the Act, which authorized the state-owned penalty functions delegated to private legal entity. The court decision was due to a child advocate for public transport travel without a ticket, the fine imposed. Until then, thousands of people have been wrongly and paid the fines, and no one questioned the legality of the sentence.
This case demonstrates that the Chancellor is not no judge had earlier expressed interest in the subject, and have noticed a contradiction. Apparently, the Chancellor of Justice of the Supreme Court and members of the public transport not running, or if they do, they will pay for a ticket and not have a choice between buying food and the risk of a fine.
A small law dating to the non-lawyer to show the fundamental conflict of laws laid down in terms of electronic voting and the actual organization of the elections.
The elections on different days
§ 60 of the Constitution says that "in the Riigikogu elections shall be held on the first Sunday of March in the fourth year following the preceding Riigikogu election year." Pressure has the words' the first Sunday. " The same idea is echoed by the Parliamentary Elections Act, § 2 subsection 1, that "the elections will be held first Sunday of March."
As is well known e-voting took place in the 24th February to 2 March of the Riigikogu Election Act, § 38 3 of the "tenth to the fourth day before election day electronically. Voting begins on the day before election day at 9:00 and run around the clock until the voting on the fourth day before election day at 20.00. "
First Sunday in March or 6th March, there was no e-voting at polling stations, and only got to choose the paper and pencil. Neither the Constitution nor the Riigikogu Election Act does not provide for elections to the Riigikogu, performed at another time, when the first Sunday in March. True, you can pre-select pabersedelitega, but then they are held up to election day and should be read together on the same day the notice, and to vote the same way (label) is also possible to first Sunday in March at 9.00 am and 20.00 for each polling station.
Electronic voting banknotes were second evening until the reading on 6 March March in the afternoon, but there was no voter choice of e-first Sunday in March. Thus, the constitution provided for elections to parliament and the election method and electronic valimisaeg voters worse off, compared with a ballot to choose!
Another fundamental difference is the spirit of the Riigikogu Election Act, § 44: "Electronic voting. (1) A voter may § 38, paragraph 2 of this Act, in section 3 of the Electoral vote electronically on the website of the days. "Votes first met this requirement, but at least 2009. In local council elections, the National Electoral Commission has ignored this requirement and use a separate program or application to the voter. Example explains the difference. A website is like a door that allows a voter election. Today we have reached a settlement in which the voter through the door into the box provided (voter application), which is a stand alone operation to carry out voting outside the controlled conditions of the IGC, prepare a voter ballot envelope and send it to the Electoral Commission. For some this may seem like a minor difference, but not on computers for people you know. Similarly, we could then go to the bank through the Internet banking application, which must be installed separately, and to abandon the current operating systems through the site.
Why is the Chancellor of Justice and the Supreme Court did not even notice the difference between at least two of the law and the conduct of elections? Probably not useful to them to bully a voting system designed by the political parties, and their salaries, they ate at the polling place by car.
