Tunisia’s Kais Saied poised for landslide election victory after crackdown on opposition

Tunisia’s incumbent President Kais Saied is set to win the presidential election with 89.2 percent of the vote, exit polls revealed on Sunday, despite a low turnout. Rights groups fear his re-election, following a sweeping power grab, will further entrench his authoritarian rule in the country that once symbolised the Arab Spring uprisings.
