The Ivory Coast’s ruling party and main opposition both claimed victory Sunday in the nation’s legislative elections. The conflicting claims came after the country’s international electoral commission released early provisional results, but no official results have been announced.
The election was the first time in 10 years that all major political actors participated in the election. More than 1,500 candidates were vying for the 255 seats, yet participation rate did not exceed 20% according to analysts.
