Partial Zimbabwe vote recount puts opposition ahead

HARARE, April 25 (Reuters) - A partial recount of Zimbabwe's parliamentary vote suggests that President Robert Mugabe's ruling ZANU-PF is unlikely to reverse the opposition's victory.

A total of 13 seats have been recounted so far. ZANU-PF must win nine of 10 remaining constituencies to take back control of parliament, according to the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission's (ZEC) count so far, the state-run Herald newspaper reported in its Saturday online version.
