HD was invited to support the elections process in Somaliland through provision of technical advice. It supported and trained the Somaliland National Elections Commission (NEC) and other key stakeholders on Electoral Dispute Resolution (EDR) mechanisms.
In 2010, HD, in partnership with the Electoral Institute of Southern Africa (EISA) trained 600 local youths, women, professionals and elders in conflict resolution and electoral rules so they could act as civil society mediators. These mediators were deployed to areas where tensions were expected to mount during the elections. They were selected on the basis of impartiality, social respectability, and suitability for dispute resolution, in order to cover the display period, the campaign, the election day and the tabulation in district and regional centers.
On the 26 June, these efforts contributed to the peaceful transition of power from the incumbent to a new opposition leader in Somaliland. All the parties accepted the result and international observers rated the elections as highly successful.

November 1988 I voted for the first time, I turned 18 about 2 weeks before election day and couldn't wait
I've always thought that these stickers were great conversation pieces to talk to co-workers and strangers about the elections. Some got washed, some I didn't get, the rest ended up here on my mirror as a reminder
I don't take my Right to vote for granted

Election correspondence so far, with the exception of the BNP leaflet which is in tiny pieces in the shredder. I replaced it with a pizza leaflet here - I think Papa John's has a more coherent political philosophy.

I was amused that Tam wanted to bring more investment south. He means south from Stornoway. If you live in Stornoway you want to wrest it from Inverness, If you live in Inverness you want to get it away from Edinburgh. If you're in Edinburgh you want it to be devolved from London.
