Vote count in Zimbabwe

Vote counting is under way in Zimbabwe, with the main opposition MDC claiming it is winning the battle to oust President Robert Mugabe.

The MDC said it was ahead in most constituencies but continues to fear the vote will be rigged. Results may not be finalized for some days and the government warned the MDC not to declare an early victory. Mr. Mugabe is battling the MDC's Morgan Tsvangirai and independent Simba Makoni for president.

The Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) said early results showed it had won the poll.

"We have won this election," said its secretary general Tendai Biti early on Sunday. "This trend is irreversible." He said early results posted at polling stations showed Mr. Tsvangirai would win 66% in Harare.

Ha! Wait till …Tuesday …Wednesday …and you will see Mugabe’s votes appearing out of …nowhere or better the police stations, the army barracks, the ministries
