Here is the original metadata given by the V-Dem Codebook:\n\nIndicator Name: Election other voting irregularities\n\nIndicator Code: v2elirreg\n\nShort definition: In this national election, was there evidence of other intentional irregularities by incumbent and/or opposition parties, and/or vote fraud?\n\nLong definition: Examples include use of double IDs, intentional lack of voting materials, ballot-stuffing, misreporting of votes, and false collation of votes. This question does not refer to lack of access to registration, harassment of opposition parties, manipulations of the voter registry or vote-buying (dealt with in previous questions).<br>Examples include use of double IDs, intentional lack of voting materials, ballot-stuffing, misreporting of votes, and false collation of votes. <br>This question does not refer to lack of access to registration, harassment of opposition parties, manipulations of the voter registry or vote-buying (dealt with in previous questions)\n\nResponses: 0:  Yes. There were systematic and almost nationwide other irregularities.<br>1:  Yes, some. There were non-systematic, but rather common other irregularities, even if only in some parts of the country.<br>2:  Sporadic. There were a limited number of sporadic other irregularities, and it is not clear whether they were intentional or disfavored particular groups.<br>3:  Almost none. There were only a limited number of irregularities, and many were probably unintentional or did not disfavor particular groups' access to participation. <br>4:  None. There was no evidence of intentional other irregularities. Unintentional irregularities resulting from human error and/or natural conditions may still have occurred.\n\nData release: 1-8.\n\n",
