The Independent Election Commission announced postponement of the parliamentary elections, originally scheduled for May 2010, to September 18, 2010. The cited reasons for this decision are lack of money, logistical challenges and the continuing violence. The postponement was welcomed by international organizations and Western governments, who have been urging Afghanistan to delay the elections until electoral reforms are adopted.
