Presidential election in Senegal: the untold story of an election canceled, postponed then brought forward. Seven million voters are called to the polls across the country to elect the next President of the Republic.

With 17 candidates in the running, it is also the most open presidential election since the country's independence in 1960. It constitutes the culmination of an intense political battle around the date of the election, initially scheduled for February 25, and whose cancellation three weeks earlier by the president caused a shock wave in the country.
