CNE

The Consejo Nacional Electoral Colombiano (CNE) is Colombia’s national electoral authority, responsible for supporting democratic processes and overseeing aspects of political and electoral activity. Its public information portal helps citizens, political organizations, candidates, and other stakeholders access official guidance, documents, and services.

The CNE provides information on elections at national and local levels, including electoral calendars, candidate listings, public hearings, and resources for upcoming and past contests. It also publishes details about registered political organizations, polling firms, campaign finance, and the “Cuentas Claras” reporting system. The institution monitors electoral matters and operates early-warning initiatives intended to prevent electoral roll migration, known as trashumancia. Citizens can consult official notices, legal decisions, meeting agendas, public reports, and transparency and budget information, as well as submit petitions, complaints, claims, or reports. The CNE also offers educational materials and democracy dialogues, information on participation mechanisms, and a channel for reporting political violence against women.
