ANALYSIS: The 2017 local election campaign

The Kosovo Local Government Institute (KLGI) has carried out an analysis of the conduct of the campaign for the 2017 Local Elections.

The findings of the KLGI Institute's analysis of the local election process show that, in general, the campaign ran normally and passed without serious problems. At the same time, the KLGI Institute's analysis of the local election process shows that we still have concerns about how this process was conducted, ranging from informing citizens about voting, the presentation of the programmes and vision of the candidates in the race, to fines and penalties for candidates, and so on.

The KLGI Institute's analysis covers three levels:

First, it provides general information on the electoral process, data on the number of candidates in the race, gender representation, the approach to election management and the observation/monitoring process;

Second, it reflects the overall course of the campaign, including the candidates' promises, the campaign model, problems, media presentation and the language used during the campaign;

Third, it sets out the general findings, conclusions and recommendations,
