1992 Malian presidential election

Amadou Toumani Touré Independent Alpha Oumar Konaré

Presidential elections were held in Mali on 12 April 1992, with a second round on 26 April.

They were the first presidential elections in the country to feature more than one candidate following the reintroduction of multi-party democracy after a coup the previous year.

The coup had followed a student protest in March 1991 during which troops defending President Moussa Traoré fired and killed numerous protesters.
