Photo Gallery of Mongolian Elections

Posted by khuushuur under: mongolia .

Iwan Baan – a Dutch photographer – was the only journalist to have full access to the presidential election campaign this year. His images give an amazing look inside the whole process: from the campaign with military bands and a ger on top of the party building, to the remote voters and the black mark on the finger, until the cheers and balloons of victory.
His website features also intriguing pictures of a Mongolian chopsticks factory, the tough life of illegal ninja miners and Russians: the ones that were left behind.
