Venezuela: Final Election Observation Report to the 1998 Elections, International Republican Institute (1999)

This report was published by the International Republican Institute, after its two electoral observation missions in Venezuela on 1998—one for the Legislative and Gubernatorial Elections on November 8, and the other for the Presidential Election on December 6. The electoral system had undergone major changes: a new electoral law (introduced in 2007, and revised a few months later), new recruiting methods for the poll-workers, and the introduction of automated voting machines. Furthermore, for the first time in 40 years, people voted for a presidential candidate with no direct ties to the country’s traditional political parties, Hugo Chávez Frías. Through this document, the International Republican Institute made several recommendations to improve the elections' transparency and integrity.
