Elections, municipality, development, majority.Abstract
Elections are the only democratic means to reach power or elected councils, and local groups are the representation of decentralization in Algeria. Therefore, we find that the Algerian legislator has established legal foundations to reach elected municipal and state councils, whether in electing the council as a whole or in electing its president. Among the problems that arise are the elections of municipal people's councils, especially since the municipality is the cornerstone of every development process.
