Abstract
This study "Analysis of the efficacy of the electoral process in Uganda''
was carried out in Uganda with the aim of ascertaining the effectiveness
of the electoral process, analyzing the challenges of election
administration in a multiparty electoral process especially focusing more
on presidential elections. To also discuss the role of electoral c9mmission
in the electoral process.
To successfully analyze this qualitative method of data collection was
adopted the study relied on literature from various scholars on this topic
and related areas.
The research findings indicated that elections per se are not an
indication of democracy and better electoral process but only one part of
it. From the period of 2001 up to date the legal and institutional
framework is still underdeveloped though there is a journey and process
of democratization in Uganga.
The study concluded that for an effective electoral process a combination
of factors have to be put in place for example voter education, respect for
the will of the people and independent electoral commission among
others.
