Tunisia voted on Sunday September 15 to elect a successor to Mohamed Beji Caid Essebsi, who died in July aged 92. Turnout was lower than the previous election — just 45.02% turned out to vote, the Independent High Authority for Elections said.
Two independent candidates, law professor and jurist Kais Saied and imprisoned media mogul Nabil Karoui, garnered the most votes. Saeid led with 18.4% of the vote, according to Tunisia’s state news agency TAP. Karoui was second, won 15.6% of the vote.
Islamist Ennahdha’s Abdelfattah Mourou came in third with 12.9 percent. Defense Minister Abdelkarim Zbidi came in fourth.
No date has been set for the runoff, which is expected in the coming weeks.
