ظاهرة الانتخابات الفرعية بين الثقافة المجتمعية و الجرائم الانتخابية

الملخص EN

The Kuwaiti electoral system follows the "unrestricted general election system" as stipulated in Article 80 of the Kuwaiti Constitution 1962 and the precise regulation of the election law.

Nevertheless, some tribal society or caste members conduct by-elections in an informal manner, which is considered one of the forms of electoral crimes.

Confusion occurs between tribal society or caste by holding by-elections that are criminalized by law and meetings guaranteed by the constitution.

The study concluded that the political party system should be adopted in Kuwaiti law to eliminate by-elections, in addition to reviewing the distribution of residential areas in electoral districts and the one-vote rule.
