to cast their ballots and elect 255 members of National Assembly <\/p><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By James Tasamba<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">KIGALI, Rwanda (AA)\u2014Polling in the Ivory Coast&#8217;s general election began on Saturday, with people queuing to vote for 255 members of the lower house, or National Assembly, amid an opposition party boycott and pre-poll allegations of fraud and vote buying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Polling stations in 205 districts opened at 8 a.m. local time and will close at 6 p.m., according to the Independent Electoral Commission, which added that more than 8.7 million people are eligible to vote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The election follows the October presidential election, with over 2,740 candidates vying for parliamentary seats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">President Alassane Ouattara, who won a fourth term in the October presidential election, voted around 11.30 am local time at Saint Marie High School in the Cocody suburb of Abidjan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Traditional political parties are competing, as are numerous independent candidates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, analysts believe that the main contest is between the ruling Rally of Houphouetists for Democracy and Peace (RHDP) and the opposition Democratic Party of Cote d&#8217;Ivoire-African Democratic Rally (PDCI-RDA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The RHDP fielded the most candidates, with over 200, while Tidjane Thiam&#8217;s opposition PDCI-RDA party has 163 in the race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The PDCI-RDA claimed pre-poll rigging, citing incidents of electoral fraud in the country&#8217;s central district, as well as illegal data collection and bribery, which the electoral body dismissed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a statement issued Thursday, the PDCI-RDA stated that it believed the goal was &#8220;to organize massive electoral fraud in favor of the RHDP candidates.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The African Peoples&#8217; Party &#8211; Cote d&#8217;Ivoire (PPA-CI), led by former President Laurent Gbagbo, boycotted the election, citing unmet conditions for free, fair, and credible elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The absence creates an unprecedented political space for independents, particularly in several traditionally opposition-held strongholds, according to analysts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The party also rejected the results of the October presidential election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Independent Electoral Commission President Ibrahime Coulibaly-Kuibiert promised that the election would be free, fair, and transparent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The commission is expected to release the provisional results between Dec. 28 and 30.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><em>Over 8.7M voters are eligible to cast their ballots and elect 255 members of National Assembly<br
