Abstract
With the rapid growth of democratic processes on the continent, elections have become part and parcel of public life and government has come up with a legal framework governing elections.1 Among the objectives that resulted into promulgation of the I 995 constitution were the need to base the state on democratic principles which empower and encourage the active participation of all citizens in their own governance. It is therefore the duty of citizen to vote. However electoral malpractices have turned democracy into more of theoretical concept hence being challenging to realize democracy. This research provides an over view and analysis of electoral malpractices their causes and impact on Uganda's politics
