Photos from Ivory Coast’s presidential election as 83-year-old incumbent seeks fourth term

 

ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast (AP) — Voters in Ivory Coast cast ballots Saturday to elect a new president, as the 83-year-old incumbent Alassane Ouattara sought a fourth term.

Several key rivals were barred from running, leaving five candidates in the race jostling for Ivory Coast’s top job. But many see Ouattara, the leader of the world’s biggest producer of cocoa, retaining his seat. If he wins, he will extend his rule to almost two decades.
