Via Twitter, Sewehli thanked those who voted for him, saying "democracy will prevail."

The State Council set itself up a year ago.
He was "proud of the renewed trust by HCS (State Council) and determined to continue an inclusive national reconciliation process. A good day for democracy," he added.
