The decision was communicated through the Buenos Aires Electoral Management Institute and was taken as a result of the failed implementation of electronic voting in the last elections on the 13th. of August.
During that day, the machines presented permanent mechanical problems, long lines of voters and, consequent delays in the centers established for the PASO.
The Buenos Aires Government will not use electronic voting following Judge Servini’s harsh warning
In this sense, the federal judge with electoral jurisdiction, María Servini de Cubría stated that “the experience accumulated by the undersigned in more than 30 years as an electoral judge forces me to warn that the elections of October 22 cannot be held once more and under the same conditions.”
In relation to this, the magistrate collected information regarding defective mechanisms in 250 devices out of the 7,300 that were available for use.
María Servini de Cubría reaffirmed her position and stated that “Porteños voted in degrading conditions” on August 13.
