However, Ennahdha and its allies, the Congress for the Republic and Ettakatol, were still in power and the Constituent Assembly had not finalized a new constitution. This led to the opposition accusing the government of overstaying their implicit term and also of using intimidation to try to silence dissent. The opposition also accused the government of using the Constituent Assembly to push through legislation that would enable them to stay in power. Former speaker of the Assembly, Ettakatol's Mustapha Ben Jaafar, then supported the opposition's call for a non-partisan government after he dissolved the assembly in August. Ennahda, on the other hand, feared that some parts of the opposition were trying to keep it from regaining power and had been emboldened by the August 2013 Egyptian raids.Yasmine Ryan Yasmine Ryan http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/features/2013/08/201381910165618995.html Showdown for Tunisia's fledgling democracy – Features Al Jazeera English 10 September 2013 At the same time, a Gallup poll suggested that Tunisians were losing faith in their government.http://www.gallup.com/poll/163943/tunisians-lose-confidence-government.aspx Tunisians Lose Confidence in Government Gallup.com 10 September 2013 The head of the Higher Political Reform Commission, Yadh Ben Achour, warned that Tunisia risked anarchy if the transitional period was not handled with care, as institutions and mechanisms of the state were either in disarray or still tainted by links to Ben Ali's regime. Ben Achour also stated that the commission was unsure whether it would be better to reform the constitution or elect a constitutional assembly to write a completely new one, but that it had to be decided soon, as the public was growing tired of waiting. He also confirmed elections would not be held by 15 March 2011 as theoretically stipulated by the constitution, pointing to force majeure as legitimate grounds for taking longer until the election.https://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/22/world/africa/22tunisia.html The New York Times Thomas Fuller Tunisia Reform Leader Warns of Possible Anarchy 21 February 2011 The election was delayed further by the annulment of 36 candidates who were elected to Tunisia's Board of Elections.http://www.tunisia-live.net/2013/11/11/court-annuls-election-board-nominees/ Court Annuls Election Board Nominees Tunisia Live 11 November 2013 11 November 2013 https://web.archive.org/web/20131113012642/http://www.tunisia-live.net/2013/11/11/court-annuls-election-board-nominees/ 13 November 2013 dead The election board was created by giving the candidates' lists to the Constituent Assembly, thus bypassing the judiciary, which cannot review plenary sessions of the Constituent Assembly.http://www.tunisia-live.net/2013/12/24/parties-seek-to-bypass-court-establish-board-of-elections/ Parties Seek to Bypass Court, Establish Board of Elections Tunisia Live 24 December 2013 24 December 2013 https://web.archive.org/web/20131225130018/http://www.tunisia-live.net/2013/12/24/parties-seek-to-bypass-court-establish-board-of-elections/ 25 December 2013 dead The electoral law, which did not include a ban on former regime officials running from office, was approved on 1 May 2014.https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-27246282 Tunisian assembly approves electoral law BBC 1 May 2014 8 September 2014 The filing period for presidential candidates lasted from 8 September until 22 September.http://www.tunisia-live.net/2014/09/08/tunisias-presidential-election-candidates-start-filing-their-candidacy/ Tunisia's Presidential Election: Candidates start filing their candidacy Tunisia Live 8 September 2014 8 September 2014 https://web.archive.org/web/20140908231053/http://www.tunisia-live.net/2014/09/08/tunisias-presidential-election-candidates-start-filing-their-candidacy/ 8 September 2014 dead Dates The interim government announced on 25 February 2011 that the election would be held by mid-July "at the latest".http://www.cnn.com/2011/WORLD/africa/05/23/tunisia.future/index.html?hpt=C1 CNN Facing the unknown in Tunisia 27 May 2011 The constitution of Tunisia mandates an election to occur within 45 to 60 days of the Constitutional Council's declaration of the presidency being vacant,Tunisia swears in interim leader 15 January 2011 al Jazeera http://english.aljazeera.net/news/africa/2011/01/201111513513854222.html 15 January 2011 but there were calls by the opposition to delay the elections and hold them only within six or seven months, with international supervision.http://www.lepoint.fr/fil-info-reuters/trois-chefs-de-l-opposition-dans-le-gouvernement-tunisien-16-01-2011-129922_240.php Trois chefs de l'opposition dans le gouvernement tunisien, actualité Reuters : Le Point Lepoint.fr 17 January 2011 10 September 2013 https://web.archive.org/web/20110119072852/http://www.lepoint.fr/fil-info-reuters/trois-chefs-de-l-opposition-dans-le-gouvernement-tunisien-16-01-2011-129922_240.php 19 January 2011 dead The elections were then delayed until late 2013.https://www.reuters.com/article/us-tunisia-constitution-idUSBRE92E0P320130315 Tunisian lawmakers set timetable for constitution, elections Reuters 15 March 2013 Amara, Tarek 27 March 2013 On 15 March 2013, the constituent assembly voted 81–21 to hold elections between 15 October 2013 and 15 December 2013. As a result of the assassination of Mohamed Brahmi and ensuing protests, which called for the dismissal of the government and the dissolution of the government, that turned violent, Prime Minister Ali Larayedh set 17 December as the date of the election. He said: "This government will stay in office: we are not clinging to power, but we have a duty and a responsibility that we will exercise to the end. We think that the National Constituent Assembly will complete the electoral code by October 23 at the latest so elections can be held on December 17." This followed Education Minister Salem Labiadh submitting his resignation and calls by Ennahda ally Ettakatol to dissolve the government. Lobni Jribi said: "We have called for the dissolution of the government in favour of a new unity government that would represent the broadest form of consensus.
