from the Field: Developing accurate voter lists in European transition democracies
08 February 2010
UNDEF supports a project by the Association of European Election Officials, ACEEEO, to research and analyze voter registration systems in Central and Eastern Europe and publish the results in a form that is useful for countries considering reform. The initiative aims to survey the legal framework of voter registration, explore malfunctions and the reasons behind them, identify best practices and offer recommendations. It analyzes and compares registration systems based on information, data and self-assessment by Election Management Bodies.
The study Developing Accurate Voters' Lists in Transitional Democracies, published in February 2010, forms a milestone of the UNDEF project. The material was gathered through questionnaires and analyzed from legislative, technical, and practical perspectives. It covers a broad range of issues, from citzenship and external voting to accuracy and fraud.
