Retention periods for elections materials in post-conflict areas



Dear Colleagues,

This is an appeal/request for sources of information on retention
periods or destruction periods specifically for elections materials
(ballots, voter registration lists, special needs ballots, etc.).  We
have just completed conducting the Kosovo Assembly elections here and I
would like to know what other (post-conflict) areas do/have done with
their elections materials.  What sorts of retention/destruction
guidelines can we offer management?  Following the first elections here
(which were municipal and held in 2000), the destruction periods were 30
and 60 days after certification of the election results.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

Sincerely,
Harriet Gabbert
