lol… right. 
 
Hard to imagine the market for the YouSeePee blaming cancer victims, or the unvaccinated victims of discrimination being a big market to sell ads?

To date that has largely been what the UCP has done with any services they’ve contracted out.

They’re currently doing that and it does not seem to be speeding things up, at least not at a rate where someone could say any benefit was significantly greater than had they opted to add more of those services under in the public system.

Well, clearly they are not able to immediately report the advance polls; if they could we would have 750,000 total votes counted by now instead of about 20,000.

Exactly. Private efficiency in government service is a complete myth. 
 
At best they only externalize costs for the public to pickup in another way.  It’s a shell game & a complete con.

Wouldn't the electronic record just be sent out to the media and than reported?
 
Seems to be taking a long time considering the votes are being counted quickly, electronically.
