Karacsony: Opposition mulling 'alternative' vote counting

The opposition is planning to set up an "alternative" vote-counting system for the municipal elections set for Sunday, Gergely Karacsony, the opposition's candidate for Budapest mayor, told a press conference on Monday. Under the plan, opposition delegates in the committees at each polling station would copy the minutes taken after the votes are counted, and the parties' campaign chiefs would upload the information to a non-public database. The database would be made public once the rules allow for such publication, he added.
