Yusra Ghannouchi, one of the daughters of the leader of al-Nahda, spoke to Al Jazeera minutes after the electoral authority released preliminary official results giving al-Nahda a lead in all five constituencies:
We have results that have reached us from the official reports coming since yesterday and from our own observers on the ground, but as we said in yesterday’s press release, we’ve been waiting for the official announcement.
We’ve just had an official announcement for five constituencies, and al-Nahda is the first in all those constituencies, with various percentages, mostly from 30 to 45 per cent in these constituencies.”
