Algeria votes in new parliament amid opposition concerns
Algeria plans to hold legislative elections with the participation of 24 million voters representing various groups, amid preparations to prevent manipulation and fraud, according to President Abdelmadjid Tebboune. He affirmed that the election conditions are favorable and that the law is being strictly enforced. The president also mentioned recent legal amendments aimed at enhancing transparency in the electoral process, while confirming the independence of the election authority in counting the results, despite criticisms concerning the authority’s reduced powers and the government’s influence over procedures. Nearly 10,000 candidates from 32 parties and several independent lists are competing for 407 parliamentary seats. The voting process is expected to proceed slowly due to potentially low participation, and the political landscape remains largely unchanged.
