Election commission web site : poor job in 2009 elections

It is really disappointing. Election commission's website has put up
a really bad show in this election. I don't know how did they fare
in the previous elections though. Here is the link for candidates'
affidavits and it doesn't have affidavits of Rajasthan candidates
still(Results are out now, if you don't know). Also, the results
stopped to refresh after around 6:30 in the evening. Really sad.

One of the worst managed site i ever seen, or say this is true with any govt website. All these e-governance, use of IT is totally bakwaas when it come to implementation.

I did not tried in day time(was watching on TV), when i tried in evening, none of link i was able to excess.

Few days back(on eve of Patna election) my brother asked me to get his number in voter chart. and i had to go through each and every entry in pdf file, because voter id was not entered for all in list, list was prepared in Hindi without considering any method of search like preparing in alphabetical or giving some option to search name written in Devnagri fonts.

But still, they have taken some good initiative and we can hope better implementation next time.
