TL;DR Summary

Zimbabwe's President Emmerson Mnangagwa has been reelected after winning an absolute majority in the country's presidential elections, extending his party's decades-long dominance. His main opponent, Nelson Chamisa, has rejected the results and alleged irregularities in the voting process. Observers have criticized the election for falling short of international standards, citing curtailed freedoms and acts of violence. This is the second election since the ousting of former leader Robert Mugabe, and analysts predict that it will not be a game-changing election.
