Other countries · Atlas Politics portal view · Comoros was held on 7 November, with a second round on 26 December.[1] Gubernatorial elections for each of the three main islands of Comoros were held on the same dates.[2] There had been an attempt to hold them on 27 November 2011 and extend the presidential term until then,[3] but the Constitutional Court ruled this unconstitutional in May 2010.[4] Process In Comoros, the presidency rotates every four years between the federation's three constituent islands: Anjouan, Mohéli and Grande Comore. This rotation was Mohéli's turn to supply the president.[citation needed] Incumbent President Ahmed Abdallah Sambi is from Anjouan, and was thus not able to stand as a candidate. The president is elected in two rounds: in the first round, voters in Mohéli vote in a primary election, and the top-three from that primary advances to the second round, where voters from all islands elect the president, who needs a plurality of votes to win.[citation needed] Candidates There were ten candidates in the presidential primary election. President Sambi supported current Vice President Ikililou Dhoinine. Another candidate from the Presidential movement was Mohamed Larifou Oukacha, secretary-general of the presidency, showing a possible split in the Presidential faction. The other eight candidates were from the opposition.[5] Among them were Mohamed Said Fazul, former governor of Mohéli, and Zahariat Said Ahmed, the sole female candidate.[6] Results First round Ikililou Dhoinine, Mohamed Said Fazul and Bianrifi Tarmidhi received the most votes in the first round primary. However, Tarmidhi's total number of votes was cut down on 13 November by the constitutional court after it had decided to invalidate the ballots from several polling stations.[why?][7] This meant that, besides Dhoinine and Fazul, Abdou Djabir advanced to the second round.
