"We want the lights to work," chanted protesters, some of whom were brandishing the green flags of the Kadhafi regime. The interim prime minister of the Tripoli-based government, Abdulhamid Dbeibah, meanwhile voiced support for the protesters' concerns in a Twitter message. But the vote was never held due to several contentious candidacies and deep disagreements over the polls' legal basis between the rival power centres. Demonstrators rallied in other cities on Friday including Tripoli, where protesters held up crossed-out images of both Dbeibah and Bashagha.
