It is indisputable that the post-universal electoral reform process in this country had to undergo timely changes in line with the constitutional reforms. However, it is difficult to say whether the necessary reforms were carried out through a broader public consultation or a more socially interactive approach to society. One of the fundamental features of democracy is to ensure vital, timely changes to the country's electoral system and processes, thereby addressing the people's aspirations. Thus, CMEV presents a preliminary draft of the reforms essential to the overall process, including the legislative framework of the electoral system. The total number of elections held in Sri Lanka since 1931, when universal suffrage began, is 74. It also includes 15 parliamentary elections. This record of conducting elections is unparalleled compared to any state in the world that adopts a democratic electoral process.
