TM appeals to all actors to refrain from undermining the integrity of election day processes without evidence

Transparency Maldives notes that despite cases submitted and allegations of systematic vote rigging at the High Court and Supreme Court, their nationwide observation of the Presidential Elections found no evidence supporting allegations of systematic election day fraud. Key findings include: all ballots counted and accounted for, ballot boxes shown empty before polling, only 0.2% turned away due to name not on registry, no reports of double voting or impersonation, high candidate representation during counting, and counting proceeded without incident in 85.5% of polling stations. They appeal to all actors to refrain from undermining election integrity without credible evidence.
