Kazakhstan's Referendum Under Scrutiny by 6,000 Citizen Observers
The El Dauysy Public Foundation has shared its findings on Kazakhstan's recent republican referendum. At a press conference, the organisation outlined the results of its independent monitoring efforts. Over 6,000 trained observers took part in tracking the process across the country.
Since 2020, the foundation has prepared thousands of observers to monitor all electoral events, including this referendum. This year, teams were deployed to 32 cities, covering major regional centres and smaller towns. Their role included overseeing the opening of polling stations, the voting itself, procedural compliance, and the work of election commissions.
Observers also documented the vote-counting process. Early reports suggest that most polling stations operated smoothly, with only minor irregularities noted. The foundation highlighted a growing public interest in citizen-led election monitoring, reflected in voter turnout and engagement.
The El Dauysy Public Foundation's monitoring covered key aspects of the referendum, from polling station procedures to vote counting. Their findings provide an independent account of how the process unfolded across Kazakhstan. The organisation's work underscores the increasing role of citizen observers in the country's elections.
