 LUSAKA, Zambia (AP) - Zambia's Electoral Commission said Monday that President Levy Mwanawasa was re-elected to a second term, collecting 43 percent of the votes cast in last week's balloting.
The commission, giving its final total from 150 voting districts, said the incumbent's chief rival, Michael Sata, had 30 percent in Thursday's election, followed by businessman Haikande Hichilima with 25 percent.
The blunt-spoken Sata said he would contest the results, saying on state television that "the whole process was fraudulent."
