Polls have officially closed in Mali's run-off election to decide who will be the next president. The day has been marked by pouring rain which observers say could have led to a lower turnout than in a previous round of voting. One of the candidates is the former Prime Minister Ibrahim Boubacar Keita, who said the elections marked a change for the country. “We are laying down the foundations of a new Mali, the foundation stone of which will, from now, be absolute integrity from the point of view of ethics and morality and, zero tolerance for corruption.” Mr. Keita is running against the former Finance Minister Soumaila Cisse, who said the country needed basic facilities like drinking water schools and adequate health care.
