The 2005 presidential & parliamentary national elections demonstrate the dominant party system that characterizes Tanzanian politics. The party of the Revolution (CCM) has been in power since 1961. CCM has institutionalized procedures for settling party disputes & selection of party leaders & exerts a massive pull on the political system. The CCM party deeply penetrates society, administration & the economy in the draw to all races, religions, regions, ethnicities, & classes. The opposition is deprived of resources, harassed by state organs, & lacks a strong communal base. The 2005 elections produced a landslide victory for the CCM that supports a highly popular President Kikwete. The CCM won 206 of the 232 available parliamentary seats because of voter reluctance to move away from a parent political party. Tables, References. J. Harwell
