According to the sources most commonly referred to, such as the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance or United Nations Development Programme, Electoral Management Bodies can be basically classified into three models: the governmental model, independent model and mixed model. The selection of a particular model of electoral administration is at the discretion of state authorities, however, there are some universal guidelines that should apply to all electoral bodies. The Independent Model of electoral management is very often used in new or emerging democracies, which is obviously dictated by the lack of trust in the previous authoritarian or totalitarian regimes. Countries with stable democracy, such as West European countries and the United States, have no similar experiences, so their electoral administrations are based on the government model or mixed model. The article presents electoral management bodies in eight countries, representing different continents and various political regimes, e.g. Iran, Brazil, Republic of South Africa, New Zealand and Spain. Each electoral authority has to effectively perform the assignment task, that is why their independence must be guaranteed irrespective of their organizational or financial, circumstances and, even, of the method of selecting their members.
