As Sri Lanka awaits the results of its presidential election, candidates gather at the Election Commission Office in Colombo amid a backdrop of economic challenges. This election, the first since the country's severe economic downturn, is viewed as a referendum on incumbent President Ranil Wickremesinghe's austerity measures. Early counts show Anura Kumara Dissanayake leading with nearly 50% of the votes, while Sajith Premadasa and Wickremesinghe trail behind. The election has been closely monitored by international observers, ensuring a transparent and peaceful process. With over 17 million eligible voters, the outcome will shape Sri Lanka's path forward as it seeks to stabilize its economy and address public discontent.
