ABDIJAN (Reuters) - Ivory Coast's presidential election scheduled for November 30 is "technically impossible" this year and will be postponed to 2009, an official at the Independent Electoral Commission (CEI) said on Friday.
"The presidential election will be postponed to 2009, that's for sure," the official, who asked not to be named, told Reuters, saying voter registration was behind schedule. He added a new date might not be formally announced until mid-November.
