Prime Minister Philip Davis and ruling Progressive Liberal Party seek to clinch rare second consecutive term. A snap election is underway in the Bahamas, where voters are heading to the polls to decide whether to grant Prime Minister Philip Davis and his ruling Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) a rare second consecutive term in office. If Davis wins the election on Tuesday, he would be the first leader of the Caribbean island nation to serve a second term in nearly 30 years. He is facing a challenge from the Free National Movement (FNM), led by Michael Pintard.
