Former Zambia vice president Enock Kavindele headed the mission to Eswatini. In its preliminary report presented Sunday, SEOM said the elections were held in line with the Revised SADC Guidelines and Principles Governing Democratic Elections. It said: > In conclusion, the Mission observed that the pre-election and voting phases, on the 29th September 2023 General Elections were peaceful, calm and well organised in line with the Revised SADC Guidelines and Principles Governing Democratic Elections. > Finally, the Mission commends the people of the Kingdom of Eswatini for maintaining a peaceful political environment during the pre-election and on voting day. The SEOM said 93 percent of the polling stations opened on time and voting progressed smoothly. The SEOM, however, noted that there were issues relating to the electronic voters’ roll, which delayed the voting process at some polling stations. It also noted that the positioning of the ballot booths was such that it did not strictly guarantee the secrecy of the vote at some polling stations.
