Sri Lanka Election

Sri Lankans voted on Saturday in an election to pick a president who will face the task of bolstering the country's fragile economic recovery following its worst financial crisis in decades.

The election is predicted to be a close contest between President Ranil Wickremesinghe, main opposition leader Sajith Premadasa and challenger Anura Kumara Dissanayake. Dissanayake narrowly led in one recent opinion poll.
