The Policy Center for the New South (PCNS) is actively monitoring a series of national elections occurring throughout this year and is committed to publishing in-depth analyses on the diverse implications of these elections. In 2024, more than 60 countries, encompassing nearly half the world's population, will head to the polls. This unprecedented scale of electoral activity has led many to describe 2024 as the largest election year in history. With such a significant portion of the global population participating in democratic processes, this year has the potential to be a pivotal moment for the future of democracy worldwide. While the PCNS is covering select elections, it aims to provide critical insights and assessments to better understand the outcomes and impacts of these key electoral events.
