Zimbabwe's ruling ZANU-PF party won the most seats in parliament, official results showed today, as the count continued in the presidential race and the opposition MDC cried foul, alleging widespread fraud.
MDC did not immediately respond to the parliamentary results but earlier today party leader and presidential contender Nelson Chamisa said the presidential results were being faked.
"ZEC seeks to... reverse the people's presidential election victory. The strategy is meant to prepare Zim mentally to accept fake presidential results," he tweeted.
"We won the popular vote and will defend it!" EU observers are due to give their report on Zimbabwe's election later today, two days after the vote -- the first ballot since Robert Mugabe was ousted after 37 years in power.
With elections under Mugabe marred by fraud and often deadly violence, his successor President Emmerson Mnangagwa promised a free and fair vote and invited international observers.
