Sudan is delaying the country’s long awaited elections yet again. But this time the reasons seem legitimate: The National Elections Commission (NEC) announced a six day delay to the elections in order to allow more time for voters to register at least in part at the behest of opposition parties. Sudan state media issued an NEC statement announcing that the voter registration deadline is extended until December 7th (from November 30th) and the elections date is consequently being moved from April 5 to April 11 of next year.
