[edit]

the percentages in the section on the results are evidently wrong.

gave Kabila only a narrow lead of 940,000 votes (52%) against 912,000 votes (34%) for UPDS leader Tshisekedi

This is mathematically impossible, if Kabila, with 940,000 has 52% of the votes, this would mean that the total number of ballots counted (at that time) would be around 1,800,000, Tsisekedi would then have 51% percent of the votes with 912,000 votes, so either Kabila's % is wrong or Tsisekedi's vote count is wrong, I surmise the former is the case. Unfortunately the BBC article referenced does not shed much helpful light on this...--Be gottlieb (talk) 16:50, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
