#RejectShamElection
FROM SHAM TO SCAM: Burma/Myanmar's Fraudulent Election (25 Dec 2025 - 31 Jan 2026) Min Aung Hlaing's election deteriorates into failed scam. 1,288 clashes & attacks on civilians, incl 308 murderous airstrikes during poll period. With more forced conscription ahead, atrocities & armed conflict not likely to ease. An estimated 10.5 million voters excluded, another 11 million couraguously boycotted. Only half the votes & polling stations of 2020. #RejectShamElection Contains highlights from 12 digests in 5 weeks!
Junta boss Min Aung Hlaing led the implementation of repressive electoral amendments to ban parties that won over 90% of seats in 2020, jail critics, and ensure the victory of the military-controlled USDP. Although the junta designed the polls to legitimize itself and appease China, the sham election deteriorated from a stage-managed process to overwhelming violence and fraud. To ensure tight military control, voting was held in 3 phases - Phase 1 (28 Dec 2025), Phase 2 (11 Jan 2026), and Phase 3 (25 Jan 2026). During 20 Dec 2025 - 30 Jan 2026, there were 1,288 armed clashes and attacks against civilians, which killed 281 civilians in 178 (out of 330) townships. The junta launched 308 airstrikes across 89 townships. Meanwhile, 404 people were charged under the junta’s Election Protection Law, with 9 receiving lengthy jail sentences of up to 49 years. The polls took place as the junta held nearly 23,000 political prisoners - the highest number in SE Asia. The number of political prisoners continued to rise during and after the polls. 67 townships and 4,000 wards and village tracts were excluded from the sham poll. An estimated 10.5 million voters were excluded, while another 11 million boycotted. In Chin State alone, less than 5% of voters participated. Despite disinformation, intimidation, and threats, the junta’s USDP won on an abysmal voter turnout of 13.1 million votes, compared with 25.9 million votes cast in the 2020 general election. The junta’s intention to resume forced conscription and its regressive economic approach make economic recovery and conflict reduction almost impossible. Meanwhile, the junta continues to supply Russia with bombs to be used in Ukraine, and colludes with Iran on sanction-busting, making it a greater threat to regional and international stability.

"Five years on, the Myanmar junta has failed to break the will of the people to resist its tyranny and system of repression. It has neither legitimacy nor mandate, and can only resort to violence against the ppl."
✊🏽End impunity!

Condemn the Global "Sham Election" Alliance
The Myanmar military junta’s Union Election Commission (UEC) is using a "reciprocal legitimacy"
scheme with fellow authoritarian regimes to mask its fraudulent electoral process.

It’s crucial that governments don’t buy into the junta's facade, stand with the Myanmar people and reject the sham election and its results.
