Electoral Administration and Performance: Findings from a survey on the October 2000 Municipal Elections in Kosovo
Kosovo is a territory with a particularly conflict-ridden past. Many people in this disputed province of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia have been displaced from their homes and experienced trauma during the conflict that ravaged this territory and its people, particularly during recent years leading up to the NATO bombing campaign in 1999. After the cessation of the NATO bombing campaign in June 1999, the international community, through the United Nations Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK) and the NATO Kosovo Protection Force (KFOR), took over responsibility for civil administration, reconstruction and general security in Kosovo. One of the major projects of the international community in its quest to restore normality to this territory was to conduct the first democratic elections for the people of Kosovo. Following the 28 October 2000 Municipal Elections in Kosovo, the International Foundation for Election Systems (IFES) conducted a survey of people from Kosovo who participated in these elections. The survey was administered during the first two weeks of December, 2000. All Municipal Election Commission (MEC) members, representatives of all political entities, including candidates representing parties, independent candidates, and citizen's initiatives that participated in the elections, and representatives of all 106 NGOs that fielded observers in these elections were invited to participate in the survey. The survey covered all five regions and all thirty municipalities of Kosovo. The purpose of the survey was to assess the performance of electoral administrators in these first elections and to determine lessons that can be learned to improve future electoral administration.
