Opis

This work aims to promote the concept of reducing the incidence of election irregularities and requiring less intervention by the court or similar disputes resolution mechanisms. The essence of this new approach is to place much greater emphasis on drastically reducing errors through noncompliance with electoral laws and particularly rules, regulations, and directives, which result in election irregularities. This approach may require greater clarity in drafting election rules and regulations as well as more intense monitoring and warning systems developed by EMBs to ensure a high degree of accuracy in the preparation and polling processes. This concept proceeds on the basis that, in general, election stakeholders wish to see the genuine results of the democratic process without diversions to the court or similar assistance being brought into action.
