===2010 presidential elections===
In the first round of the [[Ivorian presidential election, 2010|2010 presidential elections]], Ouattara finished second, behind incumbent [[Laurent Gbagbo]]. In the runoff, Ouattara was announced as finishing first with 54 percent of the vote—a result recognized by virtually the entire international community. Gbagbo, however, refused to step down, touching off [[2010-2011 Ivorian crisis|a major political crisis]] that only ended with Gbagbo's capture on 11 April 2011.
At the RDR's Third Ordinary Congress on 9–10 September 2017, it was expected that Ouattara would be elected as President of the RDR, but he instead proposed Henriette Diabaté for the post, and she was duly elected by acclamation. [[Kandia Camara]] was designated as Secretary-General and [[Amadou Gon Coulibaly]] as First Vice-President.<ref>Anna Sylvestre-Treiner, [http://www.jeuneafrique.com/473092/politique/cote-divoire-henriette-diabate-nouvelle-presidente-du-rdr-le-parti-dalassane-ouattara/ "Côte d’Ivoire : Alassane Ouattara choisit Henriette Dagri Diabaté pour présider son parti"], ''Jeune Afrique'', 10 September 2017 {{fr icon}}.</ref>
