[Civsoc-mw] Press release: Conduct of dry run test for result management system

[SANGWANI MWAFULIRWA]

Dear Sir/Madam,
Find attached statement from the Malawi Electoral Commission regarding the dry run test for the results management system to be conducted on May 2, 2019 from 9AM. 
Please take note that this is a test is being carried out to detect the system’s weaknesses or bottlenecks, if any. Issues to do with congestion over the network and possibility of unlawful access to the network will also be critically assessed during this test.
The Commission envisages there could be some problems encountered in some centres and this is the reason for the test so that any such challenges can be addressed before the 21st of May 2019.
A second targeted test will be run again before polling day only for the constituency tally centres where challenges may be encountered during the first test run.
