Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox election Шаблон:Politics of Suriname An indirect presidential election was held in Suriname on 19 July 2010[1] following the legislative election.[2] If the National Assembly of Suriname twice fails to elect a new president with a two-thirds majority, the election will go to the People's Assembly of Suriname, composed of members of parliament, district and provincial councils, where a simple majority suffices.[3]

A first vote was expected on 8 July 2010, but only procedural issues were discussed at the meeting;[4] the election was set for 19 July 2010 on the following day.

Shortly before the election, former dictator Dési Bouterse succeeded in establishing a coalition with the A Combinatie and the People's Alliance, giving him the votes required for the presidential election.[5] As expected, he gained 36 votes[6] against Chan Santokhi's 13 votes; he was sworn in on 12 August 2010.
