@ViscidKonrad @Master0fNull I think we can agree that the goalposts of confirming or denying public suspicions around the TREP pause and comprehensively auditing the election are different ones.
-
@ViscidKonrad @Master0fNull However, the OAS very clearly set the latter goalposts when it accepted the Morales government's offer to conduct a binding offer. (And clearly this invitation was an attempt to defuse protests, but those were not so threatening back on October 23.)
-
@ViscidKonrad @Master0fNull Here's the mandate of the audit: "an analysis of electoral integrity that considers among other aspects, verification of counts, statistical aspects, verification of the process, and chain of custody."
-
@ViscidKonrad @Master0fNull Again the OAS found the chain of custody, counting integrity, voting by unregistered voters, and off-book election data servers as invalidating concerns, and its final statistical results an "index" of likely manipulation.

@ViscidKonrad @Master0fNull All of those conclusions in November and December were within the remit it proposed (and the Foreign Ministry accepted) by October 23.
