Tunisia - June 16th, 2014
The Tunisian election authority proposed a parliamentary vote on Oct. 26, 2014, and the first round of presidential voting a month later. Setting a date for elections could restore investor confidence in the Tunisian economy; they need to deal with bloated public spending and pacifying Islamic militants who have disrupted steps to democracy since 2011; the relatively smooth process in Tunisia contrasts with the situation in Egypt this year. Ennahda, the Islamist party which dominates the National Constituent Assembly, had wanted the legislative vote first, while their opponents mostly sought the opposite. http://www.aljazeera.com/news/middleeast/2014/06/tunisia-parties-agree-election-timetable-20146148584443218.html
