Around 26 candidates are set to lock horns in the snap Presidential elections being held in Tunisia today.

The poll is being organised following the death of Beji Caid Essebsi -- the 92-year-old president who led the country for the past five years -- on July 25.

The preliminary results of the first round will be announced on September 17. The second round, if needed, should be held before November 3.
