On election day, the EU short-term observers will follow all election-related activities at various polling places and voting precincts across all counties. They will observe the opening of polling places, and will assess the electoral environment in which the election takes place. They will observe the implementation of the voting procedures, including compliance with Liberian laws, and whether the right to vote and the right to a secret ballot are enjoyed in practice. After the closure of voting, the observers will follow the counting, result-tabulation process, paying attention to whether there is a transparent, accurate and prompt transfer, tabulation and publication of results.

The Missions´ initial findings will be delivered in a preliminary statement, which will be presented in a press conference shortly after election day. A Final Report that will also include recommendations will be presented at a later stage.

Before all short-term observers will be deployed to their respective regions they attend a two day briefing in Monrovia.
