International observers were cautiously welcoming the conduct of the ballot.

"I think it's mostly been a good one. The conduct of the voting since it's been open, six o'clock, has been very peaceful and orderly."
If the vote is free and fair, some international sanctions imposed for human rights abuses could be lifted.
Those could include EU bans on investment in timber, and gemstone and metal mining.
It could also mean an end to U.S visa bans and asset freezes.
