Elections were held in Jonglei State on 10–15 April 2010 as part of the 2010 Sudanese general election, with voting for President of Sudan, National Assembly of Sudan, President of Southern Sudan, Southern Sudan Legislative Assembly, Governor of Jonglei State and the Jonglei State Legislative Assembly.[1][2] The elections were the first in Sudan for over two decades, held in the aftermath of the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement between the Sudan People's Liberation Movement (SPLM) and the Government of Sudan of Omar al-Bashir.[3] The election was carried out in precarious security conditions, with ethnic conflicts prevalent in the state.[2] The elections were won by the SPLM, with the exception of a handful of seats.[4] Disputes over the election results led to the outbreak of two armed insurgencies.[5]
