Afghanistan’s electoral authorities face a range of complex and difficult challenges in managing the count and tabulation of recent presidential election, the United Nations mission in the country told 1TV on Monday.
“UNAMA remains committed to providing technical advice to assist the electoral authorities in their work to ensure the results are fraud-free and credible, and the process transparent,” it said.
“It is important that the electoral authorities respect all tenets of the country’s electoral law, act with transparency in their operations, maintain full accountability for their work, and expedite the issuance of results at the earliest time,” UNAMA said.
The Independent Election Commission has started partial recount of votes, but the process has been boycotted by several candidates.
Delayed preliminary result from the vote is scheduled for November 14.
