The ruling Zanu-PF party in Zimbabwe is likely to win a big majority in parliament based on the initial results from this week’s elections.
The opposition Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) has been very powerful in cities like Harare and Bulawayo.
There are reports that some people who were watching the voting are being asked to come back to the voting places to sign new papers with the results. The officials are saying that there are mistakes on the original papers.
The winner of the presidential race has not been announced yet.
The current leader, Emmerson Mnangagwa, is being challenged by Nelson Chamisa, who lost in a controversial election five years ago.
The opposition claims that there has been a lot of cheating in the voting process this year.
Lawyers representing many election observers who were detained and accused claim the court system is being manipulated to hinder thorough examination of the voting process.
