| dbo:abstract | Presidential elections were held in Benin in March 1996. The first round, held on 3 March, saw no candidate gain over 50% of the vote, resulting in a second round held on 18 March. Mathieu Kérékou, a former military dictator who had come second in the first round, was victorious in the second round, beating incumbent Nicéphore Soglo, after gaining the backing of the third- and fourth-placed candidates. Kérékou received very strong support from northern voters, but he also improved his performance in the south compared to the 1991 election. Soglo alleged fraud, but this was rejected by the Constitutional Court (who had annulled 22% of the votes in the first round), which confirmed Kérékou's victory. Voter turnout was 87.8% in the first round and 77.6% in the second round. (en) Las elecciones presidenciales se llevaron a cabo en Benín en marzo de 1996. En la primera vuelta, celebrada el 3 de marzo, ninguno de los candidatos obtuvo mayoría absoluta. El presidente incumbente Nicéphore Soglo obtuvo mayoría simple con el 35.69% de los votos, quedando segundo el antiguo líder comunista Mathieu Kérékou, con el 33.94%, por lo que ambos fueron habilitados para el balotaje. En la segunda vuelta, celebrada el 18 de marzo, contra todo pronóstico, Kérékou obtuvo el 52.49% de los votos, asumiendo nuevamente la presidencia después de cinco años fuera del poder. La participación electoral fue del 87.8% en la primera vuelta, y del 77.6% en la segunda.
