The presidential election delay was first tackled by an Algerian political leader and some Algerian experts before some independent Moroccan analysts addressed the subject matter. But APS unfairly targeted Morocco with calumnious statements, violating all codes of ethics of professional journalism. Secondly, the military has not yet come up with an alternative candidate because they are overly preoccupied with fighting amongst themselves. Domestically, a postponement would raise an outcry but one that would be containable because most Algerians no longer care about them. If the election is postponed, the regime would need to justify the decision.
