Zimbabwe's opposition claims early lead/ Oposicao clama vitoria!




O maior partido de oposicao do Zimbabwe, O Movimento para a Mudanca Democratica (MDC)clama estar a vencer as eleicoes no Zimbabwe. O Secretario-Geral do MDC, Tendai Biti, afirmou que contados os votos de Harare e Bulawayo, o seu partido mantem uma margem de lideranca de 67%.


HARARE, Zimbabwe - Zimbabwe's main opposition party is claiming an early lead in elections. The party says it is leading the presidential race against President Robert Mugabe with 67 percent of votes.

Its assessment is based on returns from about a third of polling stations. Secretary-General Tendai Biti of the Movement for Democratic Change says they have won nearly all parliament seats in the main cities of Harare and Bulawayo as well as in some traditional ruling party strongholds.
His announcement defies a warning from security chiefs against any unofficial announcement of election results. The opposition says it fears rigging.
