The upcoming election in Afghanistan will be the third Presidential poll since the fall of the Taliban. It should pave the way for the country’s first ever peaceful and democratic transfer of power from one elected President to another. The fact that Afghanistan has never had such a handover before is an indication of progress and freedom.
Around 12 million of Afghanistan’s estimated 30 million people are eligible to vote, if they have a voter registration card.
Security will mostly be provided by Afghan security forces, although NATO mission has offered help with logistics, including air transport of ballots and other supplies.
In your opinion what are major obstacles to elections in Afghanistan?
