See the full list at the Ace Project Bissau Guinea page. (There’s similar stuff for other countries, too.) Larger images are available from the original source:
- Eleição para a Assembleia Nacional Popular : Bissau : Círculo Eleitoral N.º 28 (28th Constituency of Bissau for the Parliament Election):complete ballot paper and enlarged details (topwith heading andbottom)
- Eleição para a Assembleia Nacional Popular : Bissau : Círculo Eleitoral N.º 29 (29th Constituency of Bissau for the Parliament Election); the number is hardly visible, maybe it is 23): complete ballot paper António Martins, 20 Feb 2010
I believe that they are from the same 2004 elections, but from different electoral districts (as indicated in the header of the ballot paper, districts 28 and 29), so some different parties were running in each.
Željko Heimer, 20 Feb 2010
Yes, as expected, not all parties run for all constituencies; also, some of the parties are allied in a pre-announced post-electoral coalition UM - União para a Mudança.

The ballot papers in question do not match any of the candidate party lists shown in Wikipedia for either 2004and 2008.

Unido coalition
According to “_A Transição Democrática na Guiné-Bissau : Um Parto Dificil_” article by Carlos Cardoso in Lusotopie 1995: 259, there was a politically heterogenous Unido coalition, created in November 1992, formed by P.C.D., P.D.P., P.D.P., and FLING
