Algerian election officials on Sunday declared incumbent President Abulmadjid Tebboune the winner of a dubious election with 95 percent of the vote. Opposition politicians denounced the election as a “farce” and accused Tebboune of stuffing the ballot boxes to avoid a runoff election. Tebboune actually joined the opposition to complain about election irregularities, noting that the results announced by election officials were significantly different from local vote tallies and far exceeded turnout figures.
