Global politics, elections and public policy
Votes are won at the ballot box and contested long after. This section tracks election news from American statehouses to parliaments in Central Asia, Africa, Europe and the Middle East, with attention to how results are counted.
Recent coverage in the United States includes Wisconsin officials weighing ballot errors in Green Bay and a delayed count in Milwaukee, a Michigan House review of the state elections bureau, and federal plans to send monitors to the midterms. Earlier reports followed primary results in Montana and the legal fight over the Georgia case against Donald Trump.
Abroad, readers will find the new Kazakh parliament, legislative elections tied to constitutional reform in Uzbekistan, the detention of a Zambian opposition leader after a disputed vote, Palestinian parties reuniting before an Israeli election, and European Parliament returns. Start with the most recent stories for live counts, then use older ones for background on each country.
