Prime Minister Philip Davis is seeking a second term as voters weigh affordability, housing and 41 House of Assembly seats.
- On Tuesday, Bahamian Prime Minister Philip Davis and the Progressive Liberal Party secured a second consecutive term, the first leader to achieve this feat in nearly 30 years.
- Davis called the election early to preempt the upcoming Atlantic hurricane season, moving the vote from its originally scheduled October date.

- "The Bahamian people have spoken, and I receive their verdict with humility and gratitude," Davis told Reuters on Tuesday, pledging to expand opportunity and strengthen national security.
