In the chaos that followed, the county split into two rival administrations, each backed by different rogue militias and foreign governments. The presidential vote was postponed over disputes between rival factions on laws governing the elections and controversial presidential hopefuls. The Tripoli-based council insists on banning military personnel as well as dual citizens from running for the country's top post.
