By aggregating and visualizing publicly available data pertaining to various facets of the electoral journey, AfghanistanElectionData.org empowers citizens with valuable insights into the electoral landscape. It operates on the premise that electoral data, being a reflection of the will of the populace, rightfully belongs in the hands of the people themselves. Transparent access to information spanning every phase of an election is deemed indispensable for nurturing public trust in the electoral process and thereby upholding the sanctity of the entire democratic exercise.

Drawing from NDI’s extensive global experience, the initiative underscores a fundamental truth: for citizens to actively engage with, comprehend, assess, and ultimately endorse an election process and its outcomes as genuine expressions of their collective will, they must have unfettered access to election data. This commitment to openness and inclusivity underscores the belief that democracy thrives when citizens are empowered with knowledge, enabling them to actively participate in shaping their nation’s future. Through AfghanistanElectionData.org, NDI endeavors to catalyze a virtuous cycle of transparency, accountability, and informed citizenship, vital pillars for the consolidation and advancement of democracy in Afghanistan.

This map is based on a data set generated by the GREG project, which is based at the International Conflict Research Group at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich. Scholars from ETH, in collaboration with the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) – Trondheim worked to digitize the Soviet Atlas Narodov Mira. Released in 1964, this atlas was created by Soviet ethnographers and takes into account more than 900 ethnic groups. Despite being over four decades old, the Atlas Narodov Mira is widely considered to be the most complete and accurate source of the worldwide spatial distributions of ethnic groups available today.

This map shows the electoral districts won by each candidate. The size of the circle shows the density of votes in each district. Moving the cursor over a dot reveals the name of the district, the percentage of the vote going to the winning candidate and the total number of votes awarded. The data is based on the uncertified Independent Election Commission’s election results released on September 16, 2009.
