Jordan’s Jan. 23 parliamentary elections resulted in a new 150-member Parliament largely dominated by government loyalists and “tribal figures who run patronage networks.” Some observers complained that the election commission's rules gave an advantage to rural districts with strong government support. “To the growing protest movement, the country’s weak legislators have come to symbolize the divisive policies of the government and the reluctance of Jordan’s rulers to yield power.”

Michael Scharff, a senior research specialist at Princeton University, describes how Liberia achieved peaceful elections in 2005 following the 2003 peace agreement that ended the civil war that had devastated the country since the late 1980’s. The peace agreement resulted in an interim government, which set clear electoral laws and appointed a new election commission tasked with establishing public trust and ensuring peaceful elections. A UN peacekeeping mission was also deployed to monitor the implementation of the peace agreement.
