Asia Elects will post updates about the elections listed here on its social media platforms. Some countries are rated as “authoritarian regimes” by the Economist Democracy Index and elections tend to be neither free nor fair. We label these elections accordingly.

Note: Afghanistan, Brunei, China, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates do not hold national parliament or Presidential elections.
