Tunisia’s electoral commission has approved just three candidates for the upcoming presidential election in October, including incumbent President Kais Saied. The other two approved candidates are Zouhair Magzhaoui and Ayachi Zammel. This decision comes after the commission rejected the applications of 14 other aspirants, sharply narrowing the field of contenders.
The commission’s announcement, made on Saturday, significantly alters the political landscape as the country gears up for the election. The approval of only three candidates is likely to influence the dynamics of the presidential race and shape the election’s outcome.
