Tunisia election turnout was 11.3%, says electoral commission

The turnout in the first round of the Tunisian presidential election has been confirmed at 11.2%, according to a commission spokesperson who spoke on state television. This is slightly higher than the initial estimate of 11.15%. The commission also reported that the voting process was largely successful, with no significant incidents or irregularities reported. The second round of voting is scheduled to take place in January, and it is expected that turnout will be significantly higher than in this first round.
