The Antigua and Barbuda Electoral Commission (ABEC) has announced an official transition from opaque to transparent ballot boxes for all upcoming electoral processes across the twin-island nation.
According to Antigua Observer, the move forms part of the Commission's broader commitment to strengthening electoral integrity, enhancing transparency, and building public confidence in the democratic process.
The Supervisor of Elections, Ian [...], is among the officials involved in the initiative, as reported by Antigua Observer.
The transition marks a notable shift in how elections are administered in Antigua and Barbuda, with the use of transparent ballot boxes widely regarded internationally as a best practice for reducing the potential for fraud and increasing voter trust in the integrity of the ballot.
