		In previous elections it was widely known that government employees and their families were expected to, and did, vote for and in many cases worked on behalf of Golkar.
		Elections in 1999 will for the first time be held on a holiday to avoid workplace pressure and the possibility, as has happened in the past, that supervisors will know how their employees voted and take punitive action against them.
		The election laws and more recent actions by the KPU have created a credible system for polling that is accepted by the key players, and the Habibie government seems committed to free and open elections.

	Analysis of the Israeli 1999 Elections
		Israel's May 1999 election was an important development for the country and potentially for regional and international issues as well.
		A central question is whether this was a "critical election," that is whether it was a short-term variation in the parties' balance of power and the voters' behavior or whether it constitutes an important historic shift.
		But the election was not a victory for Yisrael b'Aliya, plagued by a split and by its inability to help its constituency while in government, it declined from 7 seats to 6.

	Online NewsHour: Nigeria Elections -- March 1, 1999
		What happened, especially during the five years of the Abacha regime, was that that faith in government was completely lost because people saw the government interested only in their own welfare and not in the people's welfare.
		And the hope with these elections was that the civilians would have learned their lesson and would have come back differently, and I think the extent to which there was fraudulent practices going on in many of the states sadly may indicate that a lot of the civilian politicians have not learned their lessons.
		And I'm hoping that with the election of General Obasanjo that he will be able to restore Nigeria to that position of leadership.

	EXTERNAL FACTORS IN ISRAEL'S 1999 ELECTIONS
		Israeli elections attract a huge amount of international attention, given the importance of the country in the Middle East, the diplomatic importance of the Arab-Israeli conflict and the peace process, and its historic and cultural centrality to the world.
		Economic, social and ideological issues will dominate their election platforms, to be sure, but the next Israeli prime minister will be chosen based on Israelis' perceptions of the economic and security dividends that will accrue to them as a result of their candidate's stance toward the Palestinians....
		A January 1999 Center for Palestine Research and Studies poll showed that 69 percent of Palestinians thought that, in terms of Palestinians interests, all the Israeli candidates were the same.
