2014 Algerian presidential election
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Presidential elections were held in Algeria on 17 April 2014.[1] Incumbent President Abdelaziz Bouteflika was re-elected with 82% of the vote. Issues in the campaign included a desire for domestic stability after the bloody civil war of the 1990s,[2] the state of the economy (30% unemployment),[2] the frail health of the 15 year incumbent and 77-year-old president whose speech was "slurred and inaudible" in his only public outing during the campaign,[2] and the less-than-wholehearted support given the president by the normally united and discrete ruling class.[2]
