The malawi Opposition Leader has won the rerun of the president ial election got just under 59 percent of the vote making him the 1st african Opposition Leader to win power in a Court Ordered rerun this poll took place after opposition parties allege widespread irregularities with the original ballot which president putin with 39 really won but mostly called once the Electoral Commission to cancel the results of this 2nd vote and call a 3rd election. Monitoring events from zimbabwes capital. Plazas to close when wasnt too much of a surprise since people voted in choose days president ial rerun different polling agents had been doing their own tally they had unofficial results which clearly show that she clearly was in the lead although waiting for was for the Later Commission to officially announce just by how much shed won and he won by 58. 5 percent of the votes that he is now the president elect and its expected hes going to be sworn in on sunday in the capital a long way hes in his mid sixtys hes a former pasta hes the son of poor farmers in malawi hes a University Graduate and he has managed throughout his campaign trying to galvanize especially the youth and hes promising them that when he became when he becomes president hes going to focus on poverty create jobs and fight corruption and the say this is a big deal for africa a continent sometimes known for disputed elections and postelection violence they saying that for months into last years disputed election we saw human rights activists opposition groups also pay should loops going on to the streets demanding fresh election the Court Ordered the read wine with a weight in the thing that theres a sign perhaps that pressure groups in africa do have some kind of power and immense amount of power when it comes to perhaps holding those to account in institutions and Holding Political elites also into account growing masterson this from the Electoral Institute for sustainable democracy in africa i spoke to my short time ago and he told me the result is significant. Its not just rear its its unique in the african context we have never had a lection an old and then the results to be different than what the 1st round which was an old that result was of course the only other case where an election was an old previously was kenyan 2070 so this is really the Court Stepping in to say that the elections were not run properly and then the Electoral Commission returning a different result in the rewrite so its a completely unique event in the african continent president says he wants a 3rd election is going to get him well hes now on the other side of this because hes alleging the regularities that he denies took place in the 1st election there are some very interesting synergies here in the Court Judgement that in all of the elections the votes affecting 1400000 votes were tallied up by the court and were considered as evidence and in this particular case the president is allegedly saying that the votes of about 1400000 voters have been affected by various irregularities in the rerun as well so its going to be very interesting to see of course the sense that that is coming out of this right now is that the the victory margin in this case is so large that it would really be a very unusual circumstance where the court would a null these elections again the victory margin by to clear here is simply too large to be bridged by even even a court order finding irregularities on the scale of the last moment.
