D-3 before the presidential election in Senegal! 7 million voters will choose the successor to Macky Sall in power for 12 years. 17 candidates are in the running after the withdrawal of Habib Sy. Amadou Ba, Macky Sall’s heir apparent, and the anti-system candidate Bassirou Diomaye Faye, supported by historic opponent Ousmane Sonko, would be in the lead. The campaign is very rapid: 12 days since the announcement of the date of the new election.

A program prepared by Stéphanie Antoine, Mélissa Kalaydjian, Léonore Jaury and Grégoire Batais.
