March 25, Senatorial Elections: Here is the Official Results

The Constitutional Council has proclaimed the results of March 25, 2018 senatorial polls. The official results show that the Cameroon People’s Democratic Movement, CPDM has bagged a landslide majority at the Senatorial elections.

The results proclaimed today by the Chairman of the Constitutional Council Clement Atangana saw the ruling party winning in nine of the ten regions, winning 63 seats in the Senate as against 07 seats for the main opposition party, the Social Democratic Front. The Head of State now has a maximum of ten days to appoint the remaining 30 senators to complete the 100-man house Senate. Speculations are high at whether the SDF will accept appointment into the senate. A school of thought holds that if the SDF refuses such an offer, it is likely to have no group in the senate given that the party needs 10 senators to form a group. The SDF has however won 10% of the seats in competition yet scoring 8.2% at the national level.

Where below is the full results

* CPDM = 81% = 63 seats
* SDF = 8,72% = 7 seats
* NUDP = 5,92% = 0 seat
* CDU= 1,61% = 0 seat
* UPC= 1,41% = 0 seat
* FSNC = 0,76% = 0 seat
* UDP = 0,16% = 0 seat
* ANDP = 0,13% = 0 seat
