Afghan Electoral System

Afghanistan’s electoral system involves citizens voting to select leaders and representatives through a combination of presidential, parliamentary, and local elections. The President is elected directly by voters for a five-year term, while members of Parliament are chosen through proportional representation and regional voting. Local councils are also elected to manage community affairs. The system aims to reflect the will of the people, but elections can face challenges like security issues, political influence, and logistical difficulties. Overall, it’s designed to ensure participatory governance, though practical constraints can impact its full effectiveness.
