The automated vote counters at polling stations are configured to record the results of scanned ballots and produce a certificate, which is then printed, signed by polling station officials and scanned for transmission to the central data processing center for compilation with results from across the country. In 2016 when such technology was first implemented, the parties petitioned the Central Electoral Board to conduct a manual scrutiny of ballots in addition to the electronic process as well.
