It was clear from the beginning after studying the online forms, that NASA had lost the August 8 elections. The evidence was there for everyone to see, including Raila and NASA. That is why their initial claims were about an alternative tallying centre giving them an outrageous victory; moles in the IEBC system and massive rigging, even without presenting a shred of evidence to back up any of these claims.
However, over the days that followed, and after extraordinary scrutiny, some of the NASA lawyers started noticing some minor discrepancies on the forms that were submitted and uploaded by the IEBC.
