7:09 pm
negotiations over again as a ceasefire. sold to the media to cut to see that is willing to revive the tools if both thomas and israel show willingness and seriousness and reaching a deal to senegal now, which has held snap elections after the president dissolved parliament hoping to sweep through and vicious reforms. president proceeded to a my 5 scene here, casting his ballot earlier today is hoping for a legislative majority. in march, he became africa's youngest elected leader running on an anti establishment platform, which appealed to send the goals large population of young voters. but the opposition led parliament has hampered his government's efforts to implemented 3 forms, leading 5 to dissolve parliament in september and call snap elections as soon as the constitution allowed him to do so. to offer more, i'm joined in the studio by mama duty, although he is
7:10 pm
a teaching fellow and p h the candidate at columbia university. welcome mama too. great to have you at the w. so this is a legislative election, but as we've explained, it really is being seen as an attempt for the president to actually be able to push through his promised reforms and to get a mandate from the people to do so. will he succeed given the way the campaign? yes, and the full the, the and the, and it co trajectory of the past staff over the last 10 years and the past this is the president's political party. i think they're darrell high chances that they will have a comfortable majority at the sending of these parties. and then the question is how broad the majority will be will send a goal is facing a variety of challenges. one very crucial challenge is the spiral cooling fiscal crisis, the deficit, it was a much larger than was thought to be the case. what kind of an impact is this having on the citizens?

7:13 pm
where there is actual transformation of rule materials and industry and so on. what about the regional implications of this election? what kind of an impact is it likely to have, i think is, is very important because a bus, what do i say? came to power under folders of a mental. he asked the young and popular elect rate and signing of these democracy and institutions allowed for the now trade for that political sensibility in a region where military cool has happened repeatedly over the last years. the success of this regime of this mandate will send a message to the region as to whether liberal democracy can be a vehicle for that kind of changes. the deal. first of the regions are expecting to
7:14 pm
happen. well, in the run of the, to the presidential election that took place in march, there was some very serious violence. are people worried that there might be similar levels of unrest now, i don't think so. i was just speaking to my father a few hours ago. he went and voted that he always do. uh, everything was quiet. i think political violence incentive got usually doesn't go beyond or doesn't affect those that are not directly involved into party politics. what happened is i serious was actually an exception, and violence was graceful to an apex that is absolutely not customary in san diego . well, let's all hope that it stays as quiet as your family has described. mamma, do d l a pleasure to speak to you. thank you so much for all of your insights. thank you for having me. and that's the latest on the w and use this hour of next
