Ugandans on Friday voted in a presidential election that could extend the term of the incumbent President, who has been in power for 25 years. A new term would give President Yoweri Museveni five more years. This is the third consecutive time opposition front-runner Kizza Besigye has run against the incumbent. He lost presidential bids in 2001 and 2006.There are a total of eight presidential candidates. A spokeswoman for the opposition Inter-Party Cooperation, Margaret Wokuri said, they cannot trust an electoral commission that was appointed by the ruling party. Therefore, they have to have our own check mechanism. He said, they plan to have their own tally and release it in 24 hours. About 14 million people are registered to vote in the presidential and parliamentary ballot.
