Zimbabwe slowly releases vote results (AP)

During a power failure, men listen to a battery-operated radio for the results of the country's weekend elections in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe Monday, March 31, 2008. The slow release of official election tallies  so far for just 24 seats, with results split evenly between the ruling party and the opposition, has heightened fears of rigging. The opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai's Movement for Democratic Change began announcing its own tally a day earlier and claims to be leading by a wide margin.
