Zimbabwe is counting the votes now in its first presidential election of the post-Robert Mugabe era.
For more on this and other news from around the world we turn to our Oh Soo-young.
So, Soo-young. Mugabe is reportedly backing the opposition in this vote. But either way it goes, a big day for the Zimbabwean people.
That's right. The world was watching whether it would be a free and fair election on Monday,... given Zimbabwe's past of political violence and repression.
It did prove to be a peaceful day,... although some international observers cited delays and inefficiencies in some polling stations.
Turnout itself was high at 75 percent,... according to electoral authorities,... with more than five million having registered to cast their votes.
The polls closed at 7 p.m. local time,... and now counting is underway.
This is the first election in Zimbabwe without long-serving leader Mugabe on the ballot,... after a military takeover ended his 37 year rule last year.
His successor, and former Deputy, Emmerson Mnangagwa is seen as the frontrunner with the backing of the ruling Zanu-PF party,... The main challenge will come from Nelson Chamisa, the 40 year-old leader of the opposition, the Movement for Democratic Change.
Both candidates have promised to revive the ailing economy, which is suffering from hyperinflation, soaring unemployment and debt.
So who will be the one to deliver their promise of building a new Zimbabwe -- the final results are expected to be announced within the next five days.
