PVT supported by Finnish Envoy to Zambia

Parallel vote tabulation (PVT) if managed well increases the transparency and credibility of elections, says Finland’s Ambassador Sinikka Antila.

In an interview, Ambassador Antila said all measures that increased and strengthened the transparency of the electoral process were good and added that there was nothing wrong with PVT if managed well.

“All measures that increase transparency increase also the credibility of the electoral process and democracy as a whole,” she said.
“PVT, if managed well and in a proper manner, increases the transparency and credibility of the elections.”

She called for issue-based and violence-free campaigns.
“Zambians have a reputation of being peaceful people. We hope that even these polls will be held in that peaceful, transparent, free and fair manner,” she said.

“We would like political party representatives to talk about issues.
We would like to hear panel discussion, party leaders discussing how their parties are going to reach the Millennium Development goals (MDGs) on poverty, environment, and maternal mortality rate.
