Mr Ramkalawan casting his vote
Accompanied by his wife and two sons to the polling station at the English River cr猫che, Wavel Ramkalawan voted just after 11am as expected.
This is the sixth time Mr Ramkalawan is vying for the highest office in the country.
He had this to say after casting his vote: 鈥淢y running and I have been on La Digue since last night (Friday night) so that we could see the start of voting on Saturday on the island before going to Praslin. Then we came to Mahe and we will visit other stations to see how things are going. Until now, everything is going well.鈥�
Asked if he will accept the results of the elections, Mr Ramkalawan replied: 鈥淎lthough it is still early, until now there is nothing that has happened that will stop us from accepting the results of the election. May be you could ask me the same question again at around 5pm.鈥�
