Presidential elections were held in São Tomé and Príncipe on 18 July 2021.[1] As no presidential candidate received a majority of the vote, a second round was originally scheduled to be held on 8 August 2021.[2] However, following an objection to the first-round result, the second round was postponed to 29 August 2021, and later postponed again to 5 September 2021.[3][4]
