Description
Polling stations close as cash-strapped Sri Lanka votes for its next president Saturday in an effective referendum on an unpopular International Monetary Fund austerity plan enacted after the island nation's unprecedented financial crisis.
Turnout was at nearly 70 percent an hour before polling stations closed, an election commission official said, citing provisional figures. IMAGES
