The first indicative vote by the UN Security Council for the succession of the Secretary-General has put Costa Rican Rebecca Greenspan in the lead, while African candidatures, including that of former Senegalese President Macky Sall, face tough starts. Sall received six encouraging votes, seven discouraging votes, and two neutral votes, making him the most disadvantaged candidate in this first consultation. The second informal poll scheduled for August 21 will be a major test for Sall, who must pull out all the stops to achieve a comeback against the favorites.
