Exit polls project Tunisian President Kais Saied will secure a second term with a staggering 89.2% of the vote, according to state media. The results, if confirmed, mark a decisive mandate for the leader amid a polarized political climate.
Sigma Conseil, a Tunisian survey firm, reported challengers Ayachi Zammel and Zouhair Maghzaoui trailed with 6.9% and 3.9%, respectively. But the real headline? Voter turnout hit a historic low of 27.7%—raising questions about youth engagement in the post-Arab Spring nation.
President of Tunisia’s election authority, Farouk Bouaskar, called the process "transparent," though critics argue the muted participation reflects broader disillusionment. With Saied’s focus on constitutional reforms and economic revival, all eyes are on how his administration will address these challenges. 🇹🇳💡
