Algeria: People's National Assembly Elections in Algeria, The Carter Center (2012)
Following a set of political and electoral reform measures implemented in January 2012, President Abdelaziz Bouteflika called for elections for the People’s National Assembly of Algeria on May 10, 2012. Invitations to observe the elections were extended to a number of organizations, including The Carter Center. In lieu of deploying an observation mission, the Center decided to send a small election expert mission to assess particular aspects of the election process as well as the general evolution of the democratic environment in Algeria. The objective of the Carter Center team was to assess specific aspects of the election process related to the legal framework, the work of election administration and oversight bodies, and the voter lists in order to make recommendations to the authorities, political parties, and civil society of Algeria for further improvement of the election process. In doing so, the team particularly focused on the transparency of the election process and the independence and accountability of election administration.
