💨 Abstract

Guinea's military junta has established the Directorate General of Elections (DGE) to manage upcoming elections, including a September constitutional referendum and December general and presidential elections. Led by Gen. Mamadi Doumbouya, the junta delayed a return to civilian rule, sparking protests. The DGE will oversee election organization, electoral registers, and fairness. Concerns arise over election credibility due to dissolved political parties and restrictions on independent media.
