Common card · No. 494094

General elections were held in the Central African Republic (CAR) on 28 December 2025 to elect both the president and National Assembly. A second round of the legislative elections was held on 26 April 2026. The incumbent president, Faustin-Archange Touadéra, was seeking a third term following the removal of term limits in a constitutional referendum. He was easily re-elected, defeating his main challenger, former prime minister Anicet-Georges Dologuélé, with more than seventy percent of the vote. The election was marred by allegations of repression, with the ruling United Hearts Movement of President Touadéra being accused of repressing political opposition and attempting to prevent opposition candidates from contesting the election.
