Ivorian Presidential Election, 2020

In March, incumbent president Alassane Ouattara announced that he would not seek another term, as required by term limits. However, a few months later, Ouattara argued that because a new constitution was promulgated after a constitutional referendum in 2016, term limits (normally 2 for a President) were effectively reset, which would allow him to run for a controversial third term. Opposition parties argued that the move was unconstitutional, and some protests ensued, but Ouattara was allowed to run again regardless by the Independent Electoral Commission and the Constitutional Court.
