Algerian Election Results Disputed by Opposition Candidates

Incumbent President Tebboune's overwhelming victory faces legal challenges over alleged vote-counting irregularities.

Opposition candidates Abdelaali Hassani Cherif and Youcef Aouchiche have legally challenged the presidential election results in Algeria.
The National Independent Electoral Authority (ANIE) reported incumbent President Abdelmadjid Tebboune won with 94.7% of the vote.
Significant discrepancies in vote counts and turnout figures have been cited as reasons for the challenges.
All three presidential candidates, including Tebboune, criticized ANIE's handling of the election.
The Constitutional Court has ten days to rule on the appeals, which could lead to a vote recount.
