Elections in Cameroon gives information on election and election results in Cameroon. Cameroon elects, on a national level, a head of state - the president - and a legislature. The president is elected for a seven-year term by the people; a two-term limit on the office was removed through a parliamentary vote in April 2008.〔(AFP: Cameroon chamber frees president to run until 2018 )〕 The National Assembly (''Assemblée Nationale'') has 180 members, elected for a five-year term in 49 single and multi-seat constituencies. Cameroon is a one party dominant state with the Cameroon People's Democratic Movement in power. Opposition parties are allowed, but are widely considered to have no real chance of gaining power. Independent candidates are barred from running in parliamentary and municipal elections. They are permitted to run in presidential elections, but there has never been an independent presidential candidate due to the very exacting legal requirements for an independent candidacy.〔Dibussi Tande, ''Scribbles from the Den: Essays on Politics and Collective Memory in Cameroon'' (2009), page 128.〕 ==See also== *Electoral calendar *Electoral system 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Elections in Cameroon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
