Another British observer Blackman Robert noted that they as a team attended various polling stations: “I personally observed election at 7 polling stations. The reflection of number of voters on the screen was a good practice. Thanks to this, the observers could conduct comparison of figures”.
The Editor-in-Chief of "London Post" newspaper Shahid Gureyshi said the great number of independent candidates left a good impression on him: “There were technological innovations. For instance, I should mention the device for checking of identity cards. There were not conditions for committing of violations because the local observers attentively tracked the course of elections”.

The invitation of over 800 international observers shows the extent of the government’s careful and responsible approach to the elections”.
Johnathan Frayer assessed as a positive case the indication of data about the parliamentary candidates’ activities in front of their names on the voting ballots: “I think my country can benefit from this practice. Usually just the candidates’ party affiliation is indicated. But a voter should know whom he votes for, and these data are useful for voters”.
