NIAMEY, Niger — Voters in Niger on Saturday chose between two candidates in a presidential runoff, a vote many hope will usher in democracy more than a year after soldiers blasted their way into the presidential palace and kidnapped the elderly president.
About 6.7 million registered voters in the West African nation chose between two former prime ministers: Mahamadou Issoufou, a veteran opposition leader promising change, and Seini Oumarou, an ally of the ousted president who is calling for continuity.
