Campaigning began over the weekend for Senegal’s long-delayed parliamentary and presidential elections. This, after the government announced that the polls would take place on March 24. Senegalese political analyst Ibrahima Kane tells VOA’s James Butty, that while Senegalese are ready to finally cast their ballots, having the elections during the month of Ramadan dampens some of the enthusiasm that usually comes with campaigning.
