330   $aThis report examines the challenges the United States and international community face in supporting Afghan elections. Further, it examines challenges faced by Afghans--including government officials, civil society organizations, and candidates--as they have tried to prepare for, observe, administer, and adjudicate elections. The report is unique in that it identifies lessons to inform U.S. policies and actions regarding electoral support. These lessons are relevant for Afghanistan, where the United States will likely remain engaged in the coming years, and for electoral support efforts in other conflict-affected countries. The report provides recommendations to executive branch agencies for improving such efforts, as well as matters for consideration for the Afghan government.
