ALGERIA-VOTE

Supporters of Algerian President and candidate to the presidential elections Abdelaziz Bouteflika (poster) ride on the top of a bus as they celebrate in Algiers late on April 17, 2014. Ailing incumbent Abdelaziz Bouteflika was poised to clinch a fourth presidential term despite chronic health problems after Algerians voted Thursday in an election that saw 70 people wounded in protests. Voting ended by 1900 GMT at polling booths across the vast North Africa country, but with the count now under way, the 77-year-old president who has been in power since 1999 remains the firm favourite of the six candidates.
