Senegal’s parliament delays presidential election.

Senegal’s parliament voted to delay the presidential election from Feb. 25 to Dec. 15, after kicking out opposition leaders in a dramatic move that extends President Macky Sall’s stay in power by at least eight months. His term was set to end on April 2. The vote followed Sall’s decision over the weekend to postpone elections, citing irregularities by the Constitutional Council, the country’s elections overseer, in the approval of candidates for the elections.
