Zimbabwe's ZANU-PF asks for delay of election result
HARARE, April 5 (Reuters) - Zimbabwe's ruling party has asked election officials to defer the release of results of the March 29 presidential election and conduct a recount and audit of all its materials related to the poll, the state-run Sunday Mail newspaper reported.
"ZANU-PF has requested the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) to recount and audit all its electoral material relating to last week's presidential election following revelations of errors and miscalculations in the compilation of the poll result," it said in its online edition.
"Consequent to the anomalies, the party has also requested that the commission defer the announcement of the presidential election result."
