Summary Afghanistan's presidential election is scheduled to take place on September 28. In planning the election, the Independent Election Commission (IEC) must overcome a number of practical challenges to avoid repeating the mistakes of the 2018 parliamentary elections--elections that undermined the legitimacy of the state and reduced Afghans' confidence in democracy as a means for selecting their leaders. Based on a careful analysis of the IEC's performance during the 2018 elections, this report offers recommendations for creating more resilient electoral institutions in Afghanistan and other postconflict countries.
