Gambians vote with marbles in key test for stability
CNN
Polls opened in Gambia on Saturday with voters using a unique voting system, marbles dropped in each candidate's ballot drum, in a tightly fought presidential election that will test stability and democratic progress.
It is Gambia's first democratic election since former President Yahya Jammeh was voted out of office in 2016.
Jammeh, who was defeated by an opposition coalition that backed current President Adama Barrow, fled to Equatorial Guinea in 2017 after refusing to accept defeat.
