Voters head to the polls in the Bahamas for high-stakes snap election

A snap election is underway in the Bahamas, where voters are deciding whether to grant Prime Minister Philip Davis and his ruling Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) a second consecutive term in office. Voters are concerned about affordability, poor wage growth, and rising housing costs, with parties competing for 41 seats in the country's House of Assembly. The PLP is hoping to capitalise on a strong majority, but the Free National Movement (FNM) is posing a challenge.
