Zambia President poised for new term
The results of the presidential elections in Zambia show that President Hakainde Hichilema is leading by a clear margin, having secured 54.82% of the votes as preliminary results from roughly half of the electoral districts have been announced. This strengthens the likelihood of his winning a new term without the need for a runoff. His main opponent is in second place with 43%. Vote counting has been temporarily suspended due to acts of violence and the theft of ballot papers, and a runoff is expected if no candidate attains more than 50% of the votes. These elections serve as a test of whether Hichilema's economic achievements are sufficient to secure a second term.
