International observers said Mongolia’s presidential election was competitive and well-organized. However, pending court cases caused uncertainty over candidacies noted international observers. The Representatives of the International Election Observation Mission of Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR), OSCE Parliamentary Assembly and European Parliament disclosed a joint statement and said that the June 26 Presidential election featured a short yet fierce campaign. It also suggests that current candidacy requirements are overly restrictive and limit voters’ choice. The OSCE/ODIHR mission comprises 12 core team experts from 12 participating states based in Ulaanbaatar and 20 long-term observers deployed throughout the country. The mission will stay in Mongolia until after the second round.
