Zimbabwe vote update: 6 constituencies declared

So far only six seats have been declared and shared evenly between MDC and Zanu PF. The MDC has won one in a Zanu PF strong hold of the results declared so far.

The ZEC announced the results at 6am on Monday and more are to follow later. Though by 10 am, nothing had followed.

Peace and calm remains.
