June-July electoral type event: Burundi

[Famous Mortimer]

Pierre Nkurunziza literally came to power by saying "I will continue to kill people unless you make me president" so it's really no surprise that he sucks.

Final results:

Pierre Nkurunziza (CNDD–FDD, former Hutu rebel group) 69%
Agathon Rwasa (Independent, former leader of another Hutu rebel group called the National Liberation Forces) 19%
Gerard Nduwayo (National Union for Progress, Tutsi supported former sole legal party) 2%
Jean Minani (Front for Democracy in Burundi, mainstream Hutu party that won first democratic elections) 1%
Jacques Bigirimana (National Liberation Forces, official candidate, Rwasa broke away for some reason) 1%
Domitien Ndayizeye (former president from 2003-2005, former member of Front for Democracy in Burundi, now leading "National Rally for Reform") >1%
Jean De Dieu Mutabazi (another former member of the Front for Democracy in Burundi) >1%
Sylvestre Ntibantunganya (former president from 1994-1996, former member of the Front for Democracy in Berundi, now independent) >1%

The only candidates I can confirm for sure didn't boycott were the National Union for Progress candidate (the only Tutsi on the ballot) and the National Liberation Forces candidate.

Jacques Bigirimana, who didn't boycott, appeared on the ballot as the FLN candidate.

Agathon Rwasa, who may have boycotted and has called the elections a sham, was listed as an independent.

Most international media has called Bigirimana's faction the break away faction.

So I'm guessing there was a split over whether or not to back the government, with Rwasa taking the actual supporters but Bigirimana keeping the name thanks to being friendly with the government.

So to sum it up:

Agathon Rwasa (anti-government FNL, supported by anti-government Uprona)
Gerard Nduwayo (pro-government Uprona)
Jean Minani (formerly pro-government Frodebu)
Jacques Bigirimana (pro-government FNL)
Domitien Ndayizeye (Frodebu unity candidate)
Sylvestre Ntibantunganya (anti-government Frodebu)
