Zambian general election, 2006
General elections were held in Zambia on 28 September 2006 to elect a President, members of the National Assembly and local government councillors. The result was a victory for the ruling Movement for Multi-Party Democracy, which won 75 of the 150 National Assembly seats and whose candidate, Levy Mwanawasa, won the presidential vote. Voter turnout was just over 70%.〔(Zambia: 2006 Presidential elections results ) EISA〕
==Campaign==
During the campaign, Patriotic Front leader Michael Sata was strongly critical of Chinese investment in the country and suggested that he would recognize the Republic of China (Taiwan).〔(Zambian Hopeful Takes a Swing at China ) The Washington Post, 25 September 2006〕 One opinion poll in September gave Sata a considerable lead over Mwanawasa, 52% to 27%, with Hakainde Hichilema in third place at 20%, but Mwanawasa questioned these results. Another poll earlier in the month gave Mwanawasa the lead with 33% to Sata's 24%, although this marked a drop from the 45% reported for Mwanawasa by a previous poll in August, and an increase for Sata, who had been at 15%.〔(Zambian president trails challenger in poll ), Reuters, 9 September 2006〕
Former president Kenneth Kaunda backed Hichilema and expressed disapproval for Sata.〔(Kaunda endorses opposition candidate ) AFP, 13 September 2006〕 Former president Frederick Chiluba urged people to vote for Sata.〔(Vote out president, Chiluba says ) BBC News, 18 September 2006.〕
The possibility was raised that Sata could be disqualified from the election for allegingly giving a false declaration of assets in August; he had claimed that a former minister in Mwanawasa's government owed him $100,000.〔(Lawyers reject prosecution of Zambia's Sata ) DPA, 15 September 2006〕
