Electoral Law of Afghanistan

The Electoral Law of Afghanistan governs how elections are conducted in the country. It establishes rules for voter registration, the election process, and how votes are counted. It aims to ensure fair and transparent elections, allowing citizens to choose their leaders. The law outlines the responsibilities of electoral bodies and sets guidelines for campaigning. Important elements include safeguarding voters' rights and preventing fraud. In post-Taliban Afghanistan, creating a credible electoral system has been crucial for promoting democracy and stability, though challenges such as security and political interference continue to impact the electoral process.
