The following sentence was added to Article 59 of the Constitution following a 2016 constitutional referendum: “The Senegalese abroad elect Deputies.” The original bill only added 10 new deputies to represent Senegalese abroad in the National Assembly, however, 15 new deputies were added in the end. Two new constituencies in Europe, one in America, one in Asia and the Middle East, and four others across Africa were added in order to elect the new deputies, with a total of eight new constituencies globally.
