    Dominican Republic

    By Ivy Mungcal // 30 March 2011

    President Leonel Fernandez has hinted at plans to seek a third consecutive term despite the country’s constitutional term limit. The constitution was adopted in January 2010 and limits the president’s tenure to two consecutive four-year terms, The Associated Press reports. Presidents, however, can run again if they skip one election cycle.
