Why? Some sort of electrical interference with the tablets was picked up by the vote scrutineers. Perhaps votes submitted with no choice recorded or something? Who knows.

Roger87 Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Now it's downright hilarious. As I said previously, the city host will be horrible but this ceremony belongs to one of the most memorable crazy bizarre sessions to be remember in the future.

yoshi Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 How do they actually communicate a tie? Do they annouce it, thus making it obvious that the decision is made by the president? Or do they try & have the president vote without anyone seeing, or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BR2028 Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 30 minutes till hell ends. How do they actually communicate a tie? Do they annouce it, thus making it obvious that the decision is made by the president? Or do they try & have the president vote without anyone seeing, or what?I though the President voted at the start of each session and gave his tablet back with the instructions to count his vote if necessary.

TexasTiger Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Or it tied and they didn't want to admit it. You might be on to something. They did say there would be a second ballot in the case of a tie in the first round. 30 minutes till hell ends. I though the President voted at the start of each session and gave his tablet back with the instructions to count his vote if necessary. No he does not vote. Period.

Olympian2004 Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Are they running late or is only my livestream not working yet? Oh, German news channel n-tv already shows the live broadcast from Kuala Lumpur. So apparently my livestream is f*cked up. UPDATE: I could now open the livestream after I chose the "floor" option.
