Senegal votes as President Faye eyes parliamentary majority to push reforms
Briefly

As polls opened, over seven million people eligible to vote reflected a desire for change, with many citizens focused on economic transformation and social justice amidst rising prices.
Faye's ambitious left-wing pan-African agenda promises to diversify Senegal's political and economic partnerships while seeking to reclaim national sovereignty from foreign interests.
The decision to dissolve the National Assembly and call snap elections illustrates Faye's commitment to overcome early governmental challenges faced due to an opposition-led parliament.
Historical patterns indicate that Senegalese voters often back their chosen presidential candidate in subsequent parliamentary elections, suggesting a strong likelihood of victory for the governing Pastef party.
