Kudos To The UDC

In most elections, there are reports of intimidation, tempering with ballot boxes and unfair coverage by the state media. But compared to other developing democracies, Botswana appears to stand head and shoulder above peers as it’s had been holding elections for the past 52 years without fail. 

While the opposition parties have complained in the past that the elections are not free and fair, international observers have always had a different take. There have been a few Court cases over the years and no serious disagreements over election results have occurred.
