Central African President leads provisional results in controversial election

Provisional results released by the electoral council in the Central African Republic suggest President Faustin-Archange Touadéra has been elected for a third term with 76% of the vote. The results have been disputed by the second-placed candidate Anicet-Georges Dologuélé, who says he won. It has been a controversial election, with the main opposition party boycotting it and the two defeated candidates have complained about not being able to travel to some regions to canvas.#Central #African #President #leads #provisional #results #controversial #election1767697851
