  Political Parties as Election Monitors   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
An important responsibility of political parties is to act as watchdogs during the election process, to protect the party's interests by closely monitoring the correctness of the procedures used during registration, [polling], and the count.
A task normally expected of parties during registration, see Political Parties and Interest Groups and Gathering Changes to Preliminary List, is to ensure their supporters are included and to object to the registration of those they feel are not entitled to be on the register.
The public authorities leave it to the rival parties to conduct the policing of the register (voter's list) on the assumption that their local organisations will have local knowledge and that it will be in their self-interest to object to the inclusion of electors placed on the register by their political opponents.

 Political Parties and the Electoral Process   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
As political parties are primarily organised to be competitors in the electoral process, theoretically they would not have a role in the organising of elections as one of their objectives.
It is important to avoid a conflict of interest between the regulated (the parties and the candidates) and the regulators (the electoral management bodies); and therefore extremely important for the political parties to develop a commitment to and confidence in the transparency and fairness of the elections.
Whether formally or de facto, it is crucial that political parties are present throughout the entire process, from registration of voters, to the register of voters' lists, the current operation of the electoral management body, the polling stations, and the counting of the ballots.

Some believe the consistency of their ties with one political party is sufficient to overturn the 2004 poll, given the small margin of victory.
in a repeat of the highly problematic "scrub list" of the 2000 election, the state ordered the implementation of a "potential felon" purge list to remove voters from the rolls.
