Tunisia opens way to vote on October 23

Thursday, 01 September 2011 17:06

Global Arab Network - Tunisian political parties have begun to present their candidates for the October 23 election of a constituent assembly, the Independent Higher Body for Elections announced.

"At the end of this operation, which finishes on September 7, we'll have a clearer idea of the Tunisian political landscape," Larbi Choukha, a member of the ISIE told AFP, in a country where 105 political parties are officially registered.

Lists of candidates of political parties, as well as independent candidates, must be handed in to regional commissions of the ISIE across the north African country, where autocratic president Zine El-Abidine Ben Ali was ousted on January 14 after a popular uprising.
