Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of a sovereign democratic state. It is a well-known fact that elections have been falsified for many years, thus, people often were not able to exercise their power. Therefore, the formation of an electoral system that will always ensure the right of the people to exercise their power through elections is of high significance. As part of the “Eyewitness” observation mission, we are constantly engaged in observing elections. Based on the identified issues we make recommendations, conduct strategic litigation and try to contribute to the improvement of both the legislation and the practice.
