"This generated confusion among voters and election officials, particularly in states where repeated court orders were issued due to states’ non-compliance," the OSCE report issued Wednesday stated.

During his campaign against Democrat Hillary Clinton, Republican nominee Donald Trump, who is now the president-elect, claimed that voter fraud was a serious risk to the integrity of the election.
New voter restrictions were in place in 14 US states for Election Day 2016, including stricter photo-ID rules and limits on registrations.
