Afghan Presidential Election 2019 Date: 28 September 2019 

Presidential elections will be held in Afghanistan on 28 September 2019.

Though Afghanistan has had democratic elections throughout the 20th century, the election institutions have varied as changes in regimes have disrupted political continuity. Presidential elections in 2009 raised doubts about the legitimacy and power of the current electoral system, established in the 2003 constitution, in both the national political environment and the international community.
