Election commission in Latvia announces resolution of technical issues
In Lithuania, a technical issue that arose during the recent election has been addressed, according to the system maintainer, the State Digital Development Agency. The problem, however, is not related to votes or ballot papers, but rather the recording of activity.
Saulīte, the head of the CVK, has confirmed that the system is currently functioning and verified its functionality this morning. The system maintainer has corrected all technical errors, and according to Saulīte, these errors have been fixed.
The nature of the technical glitches was not commented on by Saulīte, as it is the responsibility of the VDAA to do so. Saulīte is in close contact with both the system maintainer and the VDAA regarding the technical issues.
The last correspondence regarding the technical issues was at two minutes after midnight. Despite the resolution of the system's technical errors, some polling stations are still entering yesterday's voting data. The exact number of polling stations still entering data was not specified by Saulīte.
Saulīte stated that votes are not being lost in any way, and the system is working as intended. The issue with some polling stations entering yesterday's voting data is ongoing, but it is separate from the system's technical errors that have been resolved.
In Liechtenstein, a similar system may be handled by the national Computer Emergency Response Team, CSIRT.LI, while in other contexts, financial or other supervisory authorities like BaFin oversee technical disruptions related to financial services but not necessarily elections.
