The ECP will decide tomorrow whether to include the votes cast by overseas Pakistanis through the i-voting facility in the final vote count results.
The decision will be taken after Nadra briefs the commission on the i-voting exercise, which has been undertaken for the first time.
If approved by the ECP, the votes of expat Pakistanis will be incorporated in Form 48, the Consolidated Statement of Results of the Count, along with postal ballots.
Out of 7,364 overseas nationals registered through i-voting, 6,233 cast their votes in today's by-polls, according to the ECP.

It is estimated that early 86% overseas Pakistanis registered through i-voting cast their ballots; counting underway on 11 NA seats. my wife and I am one of those who could not cast his vote due the stupidity of ECP and NADRA. My wife were prevented to take part in the bye-elections since the ECP has only allowed those in possession of NICOP to participate. Last year, in Oct 2017, NADRA didn't renew our NICOP, instead cancelled those and issued Smart Card (CNIC) which also allows visa free entry in to Pakistan but it is not considered valid for E Voting. Who is at fault? Does the CJ knows about it?
