Presidential elections in Afghanistan

Presidential elections in Afghanistan are held to select the country's leader. Voters cast their ballots for candidates, typically representing various political parties. The elections have faced challenges such as security issues, allegations of fraud, and political instability. A candidate must secure more than 50% of the votes to win outright; if no candidate achieves this, a run-off is held between the top candidates. Elections aim to promote democracy, but they have often been complicated by external influences and internal conflicts. The process reflects the aspirations of the Afghan people for governance and stability in the country.
