Dahomeyan presidential election, 1970

Presidential elections were held in Dahomey on 28 March 1970. Although they were won by Justin Ahomadégbé-Tomêtin, disagreements between northern and southern politicians meant that the results were later annulled,〔(Benin: History ) The Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia〕 and instead a three-member Presidential Council was created to rule the country, rotating the presidency every two years. It was composed of Sourou-Migan Apithy, Hubert Maga (both former Presidents) and Ahomadégbé-Tomêtin (a former Prime Minister), who had all received over 25% of the vote.〔(Benin: Timeline ) BBC News〕 Maga served the first two-year term, before handing over to Ahomadégbé in 1972, who was then removed from office by a coup led by Mathieu Kérékou later in the year.〔 Voter turnout in the election was 56.7%.〔Nohlen, D, Krennerich, M & Thibaut, B (1999) ''Elections in Africa: A data handbook'', p93 ISBN 0-19-829645-2〕
==Background==
On 10 December 1969 President Emile Derlin Zinsou was overthrown by Maurice Kouandété, who had installed him as president in the first place. The military, however, refused to recognize Kouandété, and as the two men could not reach agreement, a Military Directorate was established with Paul Emile de Souza as its chairman.〔.〕 An election held to determine the true president. On this occasion, the triumvirate was allowed to campaign, and they did not miss the chance.〔 Intimidation and bribery were commonplace, and the electoral campaign saw the comeback of regional loyalties.〔.〕 It was also marked by a series of violent outbursts; invalidated reports state that six people were killed or wounded at incidents in Parakou on the eve of the elections. Fellow candidate Zinsou asserted that Maga supporters had killed one of his supporters during said incidents.〔.〕
These charges did not affect Maga's standing in the polls; he received a majority of the vote in the north, and Apithy and Ahomadégbé-Tomêtin received a majority in the southeast and southwest/central, respectively.〔 The election results showed a victory for Maga with 252,551 votes, 200,091 for Ahomadégbé-Tomêtin, and 186,332 for Apithy.〔.〕 In the entire south, Maga received 24,000 votes compared to the 180,000 who voted for him in the Borgou Department, obtaining 97.3 percent of the 78 percent turnout.〔.〕 Zinsou, running to counter the constant tribal clashes, received 3 percent,〔.〕 with 17,551 votes.〔
