1Senegal: An Innovative Way to Monitor the Presidential ElectionsSénégal : #Sunu2012, Fomba Iray Hitan'ny Afrikana Hanaraha-maso Ny Fifidianana
2[All links forward to French articles or videos unless stated otherwise] During the evening of March 25, 2012, day of the second round of the Senegalese presidential election, journalist Pape Alé Niang of Channel 2stv was able to report that there were “strong trends in the results that outgoing President Abdoulaye Wade would find difficult to contradict”, by as early as 9pm.Ny harivan'ny fihodinana faharoa amin'ny fifidianana izay ho filoham-pirenana senegaly, tamin'ny 9 ora alina i Pape Alé Niang mpanao gazetin'ny 2stv dia efa afaka nanome sahady ny « fironana mavesatra avy amin'ireo vokatra, milaza fa sarotra da sarotra ho an'ny filoha teo aloha Wade ny ho afaka hiteny zavatra mifanohitra amin'izay misy ».
3Senegalese television was using the results and projections of the #Sunu2012 (Our 2012) campaign which allowed unofficial results to be given by 9pm for the first time in Africa.Ireo vokatra sy vinavinan'ny #Sunu2012 no navoakan'ny fahitalavitra senegaly ary avy amin'izy ireny no azo antoka fa nahafahana voalohany indrindra namoaka vokatra dieny vao tamin'ny 9 ora alina fotsiny teto Afrika.
4Several days later, in his discussion programme Ca Me Dit Mag, Pape Alé Niang said that this historic first had been made possible thanks to the work of Sunu2012 and welcomed two members of the team to his show: Pape Ousmane Ngom (@Paouz on Twitter) and AmyJane Diop (@aamyjane on Twitter) were invited so that Pape Alé Niang could publicly congratulate them because, as he stated: “similar to what happens in the democracies of developed countries, it was possible to announce the victory of Macky Sall by 9pm.”Andro vitsy taty aoriana, Pape Alé Niang, tao anatin'ny fandaharany CA ME DIT MAG, dia niteny fa izao zavatra sambany dia sambany izao no tanteraka dia noho ny asan'ny Sunu2012 ary nampakatra an-tsehatra mpikambana roa avy amin'ilay tarika : Pape Ousmane Ngom (@Paouz ao amin'ny Twitter) sy AmyJane Diop (@aamyjane ao amin'ny Twitter) mba ho fanomezam-boninahitra azy ireo eo imason'ny rehetra satria, hoy izy, nanindry mafy : ” tahaka izay isehoany any amin'ny demaokrasian'ireo tany mandroso dia vitany ny nanambara ny fandresen'i Macky Sall vao vantany tamin'ny 9H00 alina.”

9Cheik Fall also presented the project in an interview given to CESTI (Information Sciences & Techniques Study Centre, attached to the University of Dakar).Cheik Fall dia nanolotra ilay tetikasa tao anaty tafatafa iray nataony ho an'ny CESTI (Sekoly fanofanana ho mpanao gazety, miankina amin'ny Anjerimanontolo ao Dakar). Andriamatoa Fall, inona moa ny sunu2012 ?
10As indicated by its name, sunu, stands for “our” [in the Wolof language [en]].Araka ny ambaran'ny anarany, ny sunu dia midika hoe « antsika» [amin'ny teny Wolof].
11In other words “Our 2012″ to show how important this year is to the Senegalese.Izany hoe « ny 2012-ntsika », mba hanehoana ny maha-manana ny lanjany an'ity taona ity ho an'ny Senegaly rehetra.
12… This year we have had thirteen candidates for the first time, and they all say no to the candidacy of the outgoing president Abdoulaye Wade…Sunu2012 allows all the people of Senegal to be informed and to receive news.… Tamin'ity taona ity dia sambany izahay nanana andiam-pilatsaka hofidiana niisa teloambinifolo (13) ary samy nilaza daholo hoe : tsy ekena ny firotsahan'ny filoha avy nahavita ny asany, izay tsy iza fa Abdoulaye Wade. … Sunu2012 dia hahafahan'ny Senegaly rehetra mampita sy mandray vaovao.
13Yves Monteil wrote the following in an article entitled “A Lesson in Democracy from the Senegalese Blogosphere“:Manoratra i Yves Monteil ao anatin'ny « Ny leson'ny Demaokrasia avy amin'ny tontolon'ny bilaogy senegaly» :
14A new way of conducting politics has been presented to the parties, as well as a new trial of methods to radically condemn policies.Fomba iray vaovao ahazoana manao politika manoloana ireo antoko politika… Porofo iray vaovao koa handàvana hatrany ifotony ny tetikady politika.
15The birth of these citizens' movements on Facebook might give a fresh breath of decision-making maturity to the Senegalese youth… #Sunu2012 consists of permanent monitoring of several fields such as Twitter and Facebook, as well as a dedicated 100% collaborative citizen blog ensuring unprecedented media coverage.Ny fahaterahan'ireny hetsika ataon'olon-tsotra ireny ao amin'ny Facebook dia mety hitondra tsara mihitsy rivo-baovaon'ny fahamatorana amin'ny fandraisana fanapahan-kevitra eo anivon'ny tanora senegaly. … #Sunu2012 no mampiseho ho hita vatana ireo sampana samihafa tsimandrimandry tsy niato ; tao amin'ny Twitter, Facebook, nefa koa tany anaty bilaogy izay avy amin'olon-tsotra sy mirotsaka 100 % miantoka fandrakofana ara-baovao tsy mbola nisy toa azy.
16#Sunu2012 also has a YouTube channel and offshoots on media platforms and journalist blogs.#sunu2012 dia fantson-dahatsary ao amin'ny YouTube ihany koa, fifandrohizana any amin'ny sehatra fampitam-baovao samihafa sy bilaoginà mpanao gazety any.
17All election-related news is found on this new stream, including live tweets from demonstrations and commentaries on the manifestos of candidates….Ny vaovao rehetra mikasika ny fifidianana ho filoham-pirenana dia hita ao amin'io fahana vaovao io avokoa, na izany fandefasana bitsika mivantana ireny fihetsiketsehana ireny, ny fanehoan-kevitra momba ny fandaharanasan'ireo mpirotsaka…
18During the candidacy of Wade, we were able to observe that certain social networks were relating inaccurate information such as stating that the demonstrations were due to the invalidation of Youssou N'Dour's candidacy.… Afaka nahatsikaritra izahay tamin'ny fankatoavana ny firotsahan'i Wade fa ny media sosialy sasany dia diso tamin'ny fampitàna ny vaovao teo amin'ny fanazavany fa hoe ireo fihetsiketsehana dia teraka avy amin'ny fandàvana ny firotsahan-kofidian'i Youssou N'Dour.
19This inaccurate news was corrected on the Sunu2012 network.Tamin'ny alàlan'ny rohy sunu2012 no nahitsy io vaovao diso io.
20Another example was given when Cheick Fall discovered a fault on the official election website and facilitated correction of the error by posting on the Sunu2012 network.Ohatra iray hafa ny niarahana tamin'i Cheick Fall izay nahatsikaritra tsy fetezana tao amin'ny tranonkala election2012.sn sy nahafahany nanitsy io hadisoana io taty aoriana tamin'ny famoahana lahatsoratra tamin'ny fahan'ny sunu2012.
21Cheikh Fall explained how this unfolded on the day of the election:Tantarain'i Cheikh Fall ny fomba nizoran'ny androm-pifdianana :
22People went to the polling stations very early, so as to be the first to vote and to gather the maximum information possible before it became too crowded.Tonga vao maraina teny amin'ireo biraom-pifidianana mba ho loha-laharana amin'ny fananganana vaovao maro araka izay tratra mialohan'ny maha-betsaka ny olona.
23They were armed with mobile phones or cameras so they could spread information in real time, check whether all the candidates had a ballot paper in their name in the stations, check whether all voting materials were actually present (the booth, the ballot box, indelible ink), tweet and inform using the hashtag #sunu2012, take an interest in nearby polling stations and finally, and most importantly, geotag themselves so that people could move elsewhere if there was any trouble.Finday iray no entina na fitaovana fakàna sary mba hahafahana mandefa ny vaovao amin'ny fotoana itrangany, hanamarinana raha samy nanana ny vatom-pifidianana amin'ny anarany avy ny mpirotsaka tsirairay isaky ny birao, manamarina raha ao tsara daholo ny fitaovana rehetra natao hifidianana (ny efitrano kely itokanana, ny vata, ny ranomainty tsy mora fafàna), mibitsika sy mampahafantatra amin'ny alàlan'ny tenifototra #sunu2012, mifantoka koa amin'ireo biraom-pifidianana manodidina eo ary farany, ny tena lehibe indrindra, ny mamantatra ny toerana misy ny tena (se géolocaliser) mba hahafahana mikisaka raha sendra misy mampiahiahy.
24The #sunu2012 team could count on the mobilization of around one hundred “E-observers” who had put themselves forward voluntarily to relay information from polling stations and especially from various strategic polling stations.Ny tariky ny #sunu2012 dia nahay niankina tamin'ny fanetsehana ireo “E-observateurs”, na mpanara-maso ara-eletronika an-jatony izay nanolo-tena mba ho mpampita avy any amin'ireo birao fandatsaham-bato sy indrindra indrindra fa avy amin'ireo birao fandatsaham-bato samihafa natao ho fitaratra.
25The latter allowed the Sunu2012 team to publish strongly indicative trends by 8.30pm which prompted the phone call from the outgoing president to his victorious adversary.Ireto farany no nahafahan'ny tariky ny sunu2012 hoe vao tamin'ny 8h30 monja dia namoaka ny fironana mavesatra izay nanosika ny filoha teo aloha hiantso an-telefaonina ny mpifanandrina taminy izay nipetraka ho amin'ny toeran'ny mpandresy.

27There were also other cyber activist projects as described by Cheikh Fall in Senegalese ‘Soft Revolution' a definite success, as well as senrevolution or Samabaat (‘My Voice' in the Wolof language).Nisy ihany tetikasa hafa momba ny hafanam-po an-tserasera izay nofaritan'i Cheikh Fall ao anatin'ny La « Soft révolution » sénégalaise définitivement réussie, toy ny senrevolution na Samabaat (midika hoe ny feoko amin'ny fiteny Wolof).
28Blogger Dom B. wrote the following:Ilay bilaogera Dom B. manoratra hoe :
29From now Twitter and Facebook must be reckoned with during elections, in Senegal as everywhere in Africa, and elsewhere.Manomboka etoana, dia tsy maintsy hiantehitra amin'ny Twitter, sy Facebook rehefa fifidianana, eto Sénégal sy any rehetra any manerana an'i Afrika, ary any an-kafa koa.
30The really old presidents who do not want to leave power, henceforth will come under a lot of pressure to do just that.Ireo filoha efa diso antitra loatra tsy manaiky handao ny fitondrana dia ho be olana ho atrehana manomboka izao.
31This echoed the sentiments of Cheikh Fall who stated recently in an email:Toy ny ako iray ho an'i Cheikh Fall izay niteny tsy ela akory hoe ( nampitaina tamin'ny alàlan'ny mailaka):
32What motivates me the most is throwing myself into writing a book clearly framing this idea and project for other countries.Izany no tena manosika ahy indrindra mba hiroso amin'ny fanoratana boky hifehezana tsara ilay hevitra sy ilay tetikasa mba ho an'ny firenena hafa.
