Malawi Electoral Commission Chair Calls for Clear Framework to Manage Electoral Disputes

Lilongwe, Malawi 🇲🇼

The Malawi Electoral Commission, MEC, emphasized the importance of a well-defined Electoral Dispute Resolution, EDR, Framework to effectively manage electoral complaints and disputes during a recent press briefing. The MEC Chairperson, Annabel Mtalimanja highlighted the Commission mandates to ensure compliance with the Constitution and maintain the integrity of the electoral processes.

“The MEC has a broad responsibility to determine electoral petitions and complaints related to the conduct of elections," said Mtalimanja. “However, we acknowledge that not all disputes can be resolved through the Commission. It is crucial that we establish a clear EDR Framework that delineates our role and ensures that all stakeholders understands the limitations of our capacity to address certain electoral disputes.” She added.

The statement comes as the MEC gears up for upcoming presidential, parliamentary and local government elections, where the management of electoral complaints is expected to be a significant challenge in the country. Mtalimanja reiterated that the Commission is committed to upholding electoral laws but must avoid creating the impression that it can address every electoral issue.

“In order to reinforce trust in the electoral processes, we must be transparent about the situations where we can intervene and where we cannot,” she explained. “This clarity will help to foster public confidence in our ability to manage the electoral process fairly and effectively.”

As the MEC prepares for the challenges ahead, the establishment of this EDR Framework will be critical in ensuring a smooth electoral process and in reinforcing the rule of law throughout the elections. Mtalimanja expressed the MEC legal limitations
