Election Materials

The International Foundation for Electoral Systems (IFES) has a diverse collection of election materials from around the world. Our collection contains thousands of key electoral documents – including ballots, country reports, electoral codes, civic education posters and more – that IFES has produced or collected over the years, capturing our ongoing work as well as historic moments in democracy-building. No new materials have been added since 2013, and the collection is maintained for archival purposes.
