ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia (AP) - The government of Ethiopia said late Monday it had won a majority of seats in parliament, while acknowledging that the opposition had won in the capital, Addis Ababa.
About 90 percent of voters turned out for a parliamentary election seen as a test of Ethiopian leaders' commitment to democracy.
A brief statement broadcast on state radio and television did not say how many seats the governing party had won, or offer any other details about Sunday's vote. Attempts to contact the government spokesman were not successful.
