Bahamas holds rare snap election as voters weigh cost-of-living crisis
Voters in the Bahamas head to the polls in a snap election that could give Prime Minister Philip Davis and his PLP a second consecutive term — a rare feat not seen since 1997. The election, called early due to hurricane concerns, is dominated by issues of high living costs, slow wage growth, and rising housing prices. The race has tightened amid revelations about no-bid government contracts worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
