This morning I wasted 35 minutes of my life waiting to vote as the person facilitating A-I was operating at a pace that would make an African snail smile at the prospect of winning a gold medal in the next Olympics 100.

When I finally reached the first step I realised that the system being used was the same when I voted at 18, a couple years ago when a tablet was something I struggled to swallow quickly to avoid the bitterness. The person took my ID card, looked through an extensive printed list, called my full name, twice, even the annoying middle name, took a ruler and pencil and underlined my name which was an action replicated by about three other persons in the room.

I am hoping that by the time the next general election comes around Barbados would leave the bleeding edge and get on the cutting edge of technology.

Provide ID cards which can swipe. When a voter turns up the first step would swipe the voter’s ID card and the information would automatically show up on all of the devices being operated by the relevant parties in the voting station.

After the person receives the ballot paper, votes and returns it for confirmation, then the final observer would click his device to confirm that the person voted and deposited the ballot paper into the ballot box.
