Parliamentary elections were held in Cape Verde on 18 April 2021.
The incumbent prime minister, Ulisses Correia e Silva of the Christian democratic Movement for Democracy (MpD) party, sought reelection after five years of government.[2] His main contender was Janira Hopffer Almada, of the moderate socialist African Party for the Independence of Cape Verde (PAICV), who would become the first woman to reach the office of Prime Minister if elected.[3]
The two parties have been the dominant political forces in Cape Verde since its democratization, but several newer parties are taking part in the election.[4]
