Kabul (BNA) Announcing the preliminary results of presidential election indicates that no one of the candidates have succeeded to get the majority of votes, therefore, the election will to the second round.
BNA commentator who closely assess the process of announcement of the votes writes in this regard: the preliminary results of the election recently announced by the electoral independent commission indicates that no one of the candidates have succeeded to obtain the majority of vote to be announce as the winner of the election.
After the announcement of the preliminary results of the election by the independent electoral commission, the electoral compliant commission should precisely assess the complaints within twenty days, and to decide about the final results of the election.
Now all eyes are pinned to the electoral complaints commission, how they asses the recorded complaints to satisfy the concern parties. The people expect the two commissions particularly the electoral complaints commission, whose work directly affects the results of the election to perform their duties fairly and impartially, in the presence of foreign and domestic monitors and to regularly report about the result to the media, in order the people become confident that their votes have been trusted and not misused.
On the other hand there is a wide range of criticism on works of the authorities of the electoral commissions. Even some accuse them of regional and ethnical tendencies; the continuation of such speculations certainly affects negatively the results of the election. Therefore, only the transparent, professional and patriotic works of the authorities of the electoral commissions can end such speculations and suspicions. Our people strongly believe that election and democracy have no any other alternative and they can be supported via using high level political wisdom and observing national goals and objectives.
As it is clear, presently some candidates of the presidency are not trust to each other and using violent words and exchange of political satires against each other will head the country toward a crisis with fatal consequences. Just the creative and genius works of the two electoral commissions can prevent emerging the crisis, which will have grave consequences as we mentioned earlier.
Therefore, the political fate of the country depends on the way the electoral commissions act. The people expect the electoral commission to present an acceptable result of election based on facts, avoid of any fraud to provide a favorite condition for the future of the country.
