The Central Electoral Board has until Friday, 11 October 2019 to publish the official results for the Dominican Liberation Party (PLD) and Modern Revolutionary Party (PRM) primaries. A source told the news platform N Digital that the request made by PLD pre-candidate Leonel Fern\u00e1ndez for an audit of the automated voting equipment does not invalidate the results of the presidential, congressional and municipal primary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The Board may validate the results within the five days granted by law and order the audit of the teams. If an anomaly is found, then it would invalidate whoever it affects,” said the source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The preliminary results of the primaries show Gonzalo Castillo as the apparent winner of the presidential candidacy for the PLD and Lu\u00eds Abinader for the PRM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The president of the JCE, Julio C\u00e9sar Casta\u00f1os Guzm\u00e1n noted that two days after the primaries, no challenges have been reported in any of the 7,372 voting tables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Former President Leonel Fernandez did formalize before the JCE a request for an audit of the automated voting equipment and software by a technical mission, under the supervision of the Organization of American States (OAS), the European Union (EU) and the Embassy of the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fern\u00e1ndez’s representatives, Rub\u00e9n Maldonado, Fernando Fern\u00e1ndez and Radham\u00e9s Jim\u00e9nez requested that the JCE immediately order the retention, safekeeping and prohibition of access to the electronic equipment (hardware) and operating system (software) contracted by that electoral body through the tender of reference JCE-CCC-LPI-01-2019, acquired from Digiworld, S.R.L.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
