«The ruling party in Equatorial Guinea is the Democratic Party of Equatorial Guinea (Partido Democrático de Guinea Ecuatorial; PDGE), formed in 1987. It was the only political party until 1991, when a new constitution allowing opposition parties was adopted. Since then several other parties have formed, including the Convergence for Social Democracy (Convergencia para la Democracia Social; CPDS) and the Popular Union (Unión Popular; UP). Opposition parties do not wield much influence in the government, however, as Pres. Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo—in office since overthrowing Francisco Macías Nguema in 1979—exercises extensive power. Obiang has won every election since taking office; likewise, the PDGE has maintained a decisive majority in the legislature. Many observers have criticized the country’s presidential and parliamentary elections as being irregular or fraudulent.»
