Former President Tebboune for a second mandat reelected
On September 7, 2024, 24.3 million people, almost every second Algerian, were called to vote the next president for the years 2024 to 2029. The presidential elections ended with the expected success of incumbent President Abdelmadjid Tebboune in the first round of voting.
The conduct of the Algerian electoral authority was the subject of debate and led to a call to the Algerian Constitutional Court which established by decision both, the results (85 % for the confirmed President Tebboune) and the voter turnout of 46%.
However, the level of voter turnout continues to rise speculation. According to the first data published by the electoral authority, it can be estimated with 23 %, which would be the lowest in Algeria's history. Although President Tebboune can undoubtedly rely on support in Algeria, his mandate will be characterised by multiple challenges.
